Hi Tom,

I've moved this back onto the mailing list, as I'd like some feedback 
and ideas.

[Talking about the Python in Education Track]

Here are some things a Python in Education track *could* be about:

A: School administration software written using Python (including Zope / 
Plone / etc.)

B: School teaching / courseware written using Python (including Zope etc.)

C: Using Python to teach computer languages, or to teach other things 
where using a computer language helps a lot. Similarly, using Zope to 
teach people about content management or web publishing.

D: Using Python in the context of university research into computer 
science, chemistry, statistics etc.


I'm personally very interested in A. I know others are interested in B.

I'm not sure whether C is in scope. It doesn't seem to be covered elsewhere.

D seems to be covered by the Python in Science & Industry Track.


So, I propose that the scope of this track is A, B and C.
