This morning I had an idea for a talk on the history of Python web programming and the evolution of Pylons (which is related to the evolution of WSGI, Paste, TurboGears, etc). That would be around 30 minutes. Then we could do the framework mini-talks after that, with each one explaining how it fits into the history (along with what it is and why it's so great). That would be another 30-45 minutes depending on how many speakers there are (and we may need to cap it to keep it from overrunning the meeting). Then I'm sure there would be a lot of questions so 30-45 minutes for that. (We had a good discussion started at the end of the last meeting but we ran out of time, so there's certainly more on those topics to discuss.)

And that requires judgement on which are the most used or most promising, which you can't tell by just looking at the PyPI index. So if I do the first part of the talk (for June), who (plural) would want to do the middle part? -- Mike Orr <[email protected]>
