[Chicago] Become a ChiPy Sponsor (Brian Ray)

[Don Sheu]

Dusty Phillips who writes a lot organizes PuPy with me. I spent Friday with Audrey Roy Greenfeld and Danny Greendfeld authors of Two Scoops of Django as they helped me with my PyCon Startup Row event at Techweek LA. 

Writing a book is incredibly hard. That said, think it's an awesome idea for ChiPy to produce a book. 

It'd be cool to do a personality piece provided the number of celebrities that ChiPy has nurtured over the years. 

Looking forward to the results.
