<div dir="ltr">+1 for virtualenv and on the where is your project going might could be a seperate discussion online that you could start online somewhere else if it is too much for this forum. I like the idea of Vagrant but the one I tried to set up in Xubunto broke.</div>

It's been a while since I've given a talk at ChiPy. I have several<br>
topics queued up that I'd love to speak about:<br>
<br>
- Hy: a lisp that transforms itself into the python AST. It's really<br>
cool, and I think it may have an extremely interesting future!<br>
<br>

- Should MediaGoblin be a Django application?<br>
<br>
~2 years into being developed as a "django-like" web application that<br>
does not use django and in fact uses no framework and just cobbles<br>
together a bunch of good libraries, it's time for a reflection: was<br>
that the right choice? What historical reasons lead to this<br>
decision? Have the reasons stayed the same? What have we learned?<br>
What would switching look like, and why should or shouldn't we?<br>
<br>
- In-project virtualenvs (lightning talk)<br>
<br>
This talk advocates for an unusual method of setting up a virtualenv<br>
that I believe will make things a lot easier for your contributors.<br>
<br>
- Release your secret sauce<br>
<br>
This talk is more of a social/philosophical talk about trends in web<br>
development. Releasing libraries as FOSS is the hip/cool thing to<br>
do, but why aren't we seeing as many full web applications being<br>
released in such a manner?<br>
<br>
I am going to suggest I give talks on #1 and also #3 since it's super<br>
short. The other ones I'm still interested in talking about in the<br>
near-future, though.<br>
<br>
Alternately we could do an ALL CHRIS WEBBER CHIPY wait that's a terrible<br>
idea let's not.<br>
