Agreed!  There was mention at the bar once about a presentation on the
art of brewing beer.  But the general idea was just to have one
non-Python presentation, it could be anything.

Also, I think we have reached critical mass of talk proposals so
perhaps it is time to stack them all up and put it to a vote?  As for
number of talks, we know that each ChiPy meeting is always better than
the last, but to risk a meeting that may be
only-slightly-better-than-the-last I vote we keep talks to a maximum
of 60 minutes total (two 30 min talks or the equivalent in lightning
talks).  Unless someone convinces me that we can go 90 minutes.
