Hello Everyone- I'd like to announce the tutorials sessions for PyCon 2008 (US). As you may know, this year PyCon is being held in Chicago, Illinois March 14-16 with the Thursday before (the 13th) being "Tutorial Thursday". We are expecting nearly 600 Python enthusiasts to meet up for the conference and have 29 tutorial sessions scheduled on Thursday in three sessions; morning, afternoon, and evening. There is an extra fee to attend a tutorial, but the sessions are 3 hours long (with a break) and are taught by some of the smartest cookies in the Python community. Pop on over to http://us.pycon.org/2008/about/ for more information Here's a list of the sessions currently offered (we may cancel a session if there are fewer than 10 people registered, but that doesn't happen very often). In particular, note that there are 4 different introduction to Python tutorials aimed at different audiences. *Morning Session* (9:00am-12:20pm) - Eggs and Buildout Deployment in Pythonhttp://us.pycon.org/2008/tutorials/EggsRush/(Jeff Rush) - Python 101 for Programmershttp://us.pycon.org/2008/tutorials/Python101Holden/(Steve Holden) - Introduction to SQLAlchemyhttp://us.pycon.org/2008/tutorials/SQLAlechemyIEllis/(Jonathan Ellis and and Michael Baye) - Python plotting with matplotlib and pylabhttp://us.pycon.org/2008/tutorials/MatLabHunter/(John Hunter) - SWIG Master Class http://us.pycon.org/2008/tutorials/SwigBeazley/(David Beazley) - Secrets of the Framework Creatorshttp://us.pycon.org/2008/tutorials/FrameworksHsu/(Feihong Hsu) - Introduction to NumPyhttp://us.pycon.org/2008/tutorials/NumPyJones/(Travis Oliphant and Eric Jones) - Making Small Software for Small People, Sugar/OLPC Coding by Examplehttp://us.pycon.org/2008/tutorials/SugarFletcher/(Mike C.
