OK, here's the detailed talks. Someone put those on the right track. 
(pun intended ;)


Lightning talk or 25min:

"MoinMoin - Lessons learned in a Python OS project"

Going from a 600 line CGI script to a 11000 lines application, 
evolving over two years, MoinMoin is still manageable due to 
modularization and its plugin architecture. During that time, some of 
the initial decisions remained right, some less so.


25 or 35 min:

"Integrating Python into a high-performance web platform"

Using Python in a high-load web environment (~400 linux servers, 600+ 
million page hits a month, ~10 million registered users) poses 
special challenges, but it makes an ideal companion to other (mostly 
open-source) products & technologies (GNU/Linux, Apache, MICO (CORBA), 
Xerces/Xalan, Oracle). The talk will highlight some of the benefits 
and trade-offs of using Python in such an environment.
