The question is what is the interesting Python angle? I did some full sessions on SCons 2007 and 2008. Most of the time I am plugging concurrency, parallelism and the "pain in the arse" that is the GIL. However that fight has been lost as Guido seems committed to the GIL in CPython, and Armin's experiments using STM are not really gaining much traction in PyPy or CPython. For the last couple of years I have gone just as an attender, and person who gets co-opted onto panels. I shtere perhaps a lightning talk. Preferably something with a serious message that can be done as a 4:58 comedic piece. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:[email protected] 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: [email protected] London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder _______________________________________________ Scons-dev mailing list [email protected] http://two.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/scons-dev
