Title: Three Generations of User Interface
Abstract:  I have implemented DialogDevil via three different user 
interfaces: (1) direct to Windows API via ctypes (2) wxPython, and (3) 
separate embedded html-based process.  The pros and cons of each 
approach from a developer's perspective will be discussed using metrics 
such as memory footprint, download size, flexibility, robustness, and 
visual styling.

8:00
Speaker: Drew Perttula
Bio: In past Baypiggies meetings, Drew has presented a video editor, an 
intro to pyrex, and a theater lighting control system. Currently, he 
spends most of his time working on films with ogres and princesses and 
on a web game startup.

Title: Visualizing python profile results
Abstract: I'll present a simple development tool that reads results 
from the python profiler and renders them into a web page. The page 
uses colored bars and tinted table cells to highlight additional 
information about the profile results.
