So, a part of the slides that I've already done is about 'why Cython' and what 
concrete advantages it offers over using the CPython API directly. I was 
planning on doing a mini-tutorial on how to use Cython to wrap a C library, but 
I can stick to just what I already mentioned plus demonstrating/explaining bits 
of oursql.

Also, I haven't been to one of these meetings before (though I've meant to for 
a number of months now), so I'm not sure of how I'd present my slides in the 
first place. It's all on google docs, though I do also have a laptop and a VGA 
out port.
