[Chicago] ChiPy is Awesome

[Adam Forsyth]

Any other volunteers to give talks next week, especially Django related?

Yarko, did you submit yet?

Do we know if any of the conference people will still be in town on
Thursday and might be interested in speaking?

Anyone who's attending DjangoCon interested in giving a brief summary /
overview?
