So were any Zope talks/tutorials accepted? FWIW, Tres had a BFG talk accepted, and Carlos had a BFG talk and a BFG tutorial accepted. I proposed a talk about profiling that didn't make it.
The TG guys had one talk accepted. Not sure about Pylons. I assume Django had a bunch, but I don't know for sure. - C Martijn Faassen wrote: > Chris McDonough wrote: > [snip] >> Another way to avoid this in the future besides joining the committee would >> be >> for notable members of the Zope community to reach out on a regular (daily) >> basis to other Python-using communities.
