I've been out of the country a while and am a bit out of touch: how are the talks arranged these days? (I gather it's no longer "write your name on the wiki" :-)
The wiki went the way of the dodo when python.org's wiki was hacked. Nowadays meetup.com is the place to tell you're coming. For the next Utrecht meeting: http://www.meetup.com/dutch-django-assocation/events/179100132/The name of that meetup is that of the Django branch, but that's mostly because the python wiki got hacked and we needed something QUICK.
And, as usual, registering isn't necessary. You can just show up. Registering is mostly for the organizer to know how much cola, orange juice, beer and chips to arrange.
If people are interested, I think I'd be able to work up a presentation
about the fundamentals of coroutines, event loops, and non-blocking I/O
(the stuff that makes asyncio and friends work). There would be some
overlap with the PyGrunn program, judging by the talk titles ("asyncio
internals" and "gevent"), but my idea would be to zoom out from details
of any particular library and look at the ideas they have in common.
Sounds like a nice technical internal talk, I'd be interested!It is a just a month or so after the pygrunn conference, so perhaps it'd be better to give your talk at a later PUN meeting? I don't know about the overlap with pygrunn (regarding subject and regarding people-attending-both-PUN-and-pygrunn).
We've got some fancy projects ourselves that we'd like to show. I'm thinking about splitting one of the two 30 minute sessions in 2x15 minutes. One for fancy GDAL geographical layer manipulations. One of my colleagues does absolute magic with a Flask web service based on that new 50x50cm "AHN2" Dutch height data grid. He claims he's "only using GDAL", so that sounds like a nice talk. The other is a wonderful 3D flood simulation tool. The actual calculation is in Fortran and all the rest is in Python, including a web interface where you can do live flood simulations.
