wxPython is a great idea.  I haven't been exposed to this framework  
before but would be very interested in such a talk.

Fair enough.  Despite its vaugness, my hunch was that it would be  
interesting :-)

+1 for covering Hadoop

Great.  Quick Question:  The December meeting will be Dec. 14th,  
right?  If so, that works out well since I have a big deadline on the  
9th at work and it will be relatively smooth sailing for the rest of  
the year.
