The proposal acceptance date is in a few days.
Here are the four proposals I have made:
- The state of packaging in Python. This discussion resumes the
current options when it comes to distribute your packages. It also
explains the pitfalls and the gap between the Python developers and
the OS vendors and packagers. I think this talk will not be picked
because the topic is wide and vague. So I proposed to transform it
into a panel where lead developers from various framework could
explain their usage of distutils and what is missing to make them
happy. No feedback yet on this.
- Atomisator, the agile data processing framework. This tool is
starting to be useful, and I think it can be useful to others. Check
http://atomisator.ziade.org for a quick overview.
- How AlterWay releases web applications using zc.buildout. That
is the same talk I gave at the Plone conf but I present it in a way
people understand zc.buildout is not tied to Zope and Plone and can
be used with any other application. As a matter of fact, it has
become a standard here, and we use it for Pylons, etc..
- On the importance of PyPI in delivering and building Python
softwares - mirroring, fail-over and third-party package indexes.
That's a long title. It presents my work on PyPI.
Last, I will go to the Python Language Summit the day before Pycon. I volunteered to be a "champion" on distutils matters.
