Sorry about that. Subject ======= GUI programming in Python using Gtk+ Short description ================= This tutorial will demonstrate the python bindings for the Gtk+ toolkit, the gazpacho UI designer and other rapid development tools developed for PyGTK. Basic python experience is assumed. Longer description ================== An introduction to Gtk+/PyGTK will be given in a presentation. Features and advantages will be discussed. The audience will not need to know anything about development of graphical applications, neither with PyGTK or any other toolkits. Basic concepts will be explained and demonstrated. Several applications will be written from scratch to show the general workflow of a PyGTK application: - Hello World - Web browser using Mozilla The UI designer Gazpacho will be shown and a small couple of demos will be shown: - Hello world using Gazpacho - Web browser - Full featured text editor If time is given, additional GNOME technologies such as virtual filesystem, file manager, CORBA will be demostrated. Portability, easy of use, documentation, licensing will also be noted so the audience have a good understand of the platform.

Volkmer Track: Science Titel: Python and a few more animals - using Python in science & research at MPI-CBG Abstract: The Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics Dresden, a new research facility in Germany, while established five years ago, got already some reputation in the scientific community for its interdisciplinary approach to the research in these areas. The talk will give an overview how Python is used for the IT software infrastructure of the research institute. The talk is also going into some details as Python for administrative and scientific databases, Python for solving bioinformatics tasks, Python for image processing & analysis and Python for hardware control. The final of the talk is a discussion of Python compared to other programming languages and software environments used at the MPI-CBG.

I am trying to submit a talk for europython (last min :-) and i cant get the webstite to work, i keep getting the same error. (error at the end of this email). Would it be possible to put forward my presentation proposal to you in an email? (here it is), Many thanks Steven Title ------------------------------------------------------------------ Storage Resource Broker (SRB), Large scientific data and Python Abstract (max 200) ------------------------------------------------------------------ The BioSimGrid (www.biosimgrid.org) project is used with in the biochemical community to manage large amounts of simulation data. Each biochemical simulation produces trajectories which store the location and velocity of each atom in a protein over a given time period. Each trajectory can be 5-20GB in size and the BioSimGrid project can store over 2000 trajectories. We addresses these issues by delivering a distributed database system, to enable more effective storage, access and exchange of biomolecular simulation data, utilising Python as the integration language and flatfiles for storage. The flatfile distribution is managed using a Storage Resource Broker (SRB, http://www.sdsc.edu/srb/) and controlled via a limited python interface. To exploit the efficiency of the flatfiles for the trajectory data and the power of relational databases for the metadata, we present a hybrid approach to storing the data, using (i) SRB to manage flatfiles and using (ii) Oracle10g to store the metadata across 6 distributes sites. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Long description ------------------------------------------------------------------ Computer simulations play a vital role in biochemical research. By simulating the interactions of all atoms within a molecule or protein, the biochemical properties of the structure can be revealed. One important application of such Molecular Dynamics and Monte-Carlo simulations is predictive modelling in drug discovery, where the motion of proteins are important. These simulations are computationally demanding and they produce huge amount of data which is analysed by a variety of methods in order to obtain biochemical properties. Generally, these data are stored at the laboratory where they have been computed in a proprietary format which is unique to the simulation code that has been used. This constrains the sharing of data and results within the biochemistry community therefore the data can generally not be compared easily with post processing tools due to the varying data formats. This talk covers how the BioSimGrid project utilises python to produce a framework which stores the data as well as allows users to submit processing scripts to process the data. The data are structured into two key areas, the trajectory data and the metadata. As the metadata is small and relational, it is stored in a database, curently Oracle 10g. This database is replicated across our 6 sites and accessed using the Python interfaces. The trajectory data is 5-20GB and not very suited to a relational database, so for storage and processing requirements we have produced a framework which stores and retrieves the data into a Storage Resource Broker (SRB) using python. SRB enables us to deposit data at any site/location and have it available to all sites thus eliminating the need to transport or record the location of the data. There are currently many interfaces to SRB for other languages as well as a Windows based application and a very basic python interface. This talk will also look into the existing API as well as ongoing work, it will cover the advantages and disadvantages of SRB, providing a practical example showing how it can be used to store extremely large volumes of data. --------------------------------- -----------------------WEB PAGE ERROR------------------------------------- Web.Sync.srend.FormError: Either your session timed out, or you came here through an incomplete URL.

The idea from last year was to make sure there is a slot of time when all booths are manned and up and running. It is not reasonable to ask the exhibitors to keep their booths going throughout the conference. Europython is not a large enough event for this. At ACCU UK, which is a larger and much more expensive conference, the exhibitors are there for 2 of the 4 days. > > > 2 B) I want this because it I would like to have at least 3-4 > > exhibitng sponsors.

Here are instructions for how to handle people in batch: They need to fill in one web page per person. Each person should have their own personal details filled in and each person _must_ have a unique email address. You may fake the email address, in which case you won't get official communications from the Europython conference. If you want to pay using a credit card: After you have filled in the personal details and submitted them, you select the "Defer" option. On the invoice page, you then note down the payment code. When you have entered all the attendees you want to pay for, you proceed to the "Pay multiple invoices" link on the registration page that can be reached from the Europython main webpage. On the page you reach, you enter all the payment codes. You will be redirected to the Worldpay website. After you have paid, you will be returned to the registration site, where you can select and print each of the invoices in the paid batch. Like almost all conference registration software, we generate one invoice per attendee and do not have an alternative with a singe invoice for multiple attendees. If you want to pay by SWIFT/IBAN or directly into the Swedish bank account of the Europython Society: After you have filled in the personal details and submitted them, you select the "Pay by SWIFT/IBAN" option. When reaching the invoice page, print the invoice. When paying, please attach all the payment codes with the payment. If there isn't room enough in the message field, send an email to jacob at strakt.com with the details of your payment and all the payment codes that the payment covers. If someone wants to bring a really large number of people - say 15 or more - I can write a script that takes a list of personal data. However, this would eat some of my time, which is a resource which is currently in short supply.

As an early-bird registrant, you get a discount because you are taking a slightly bigger risk, since you don't know what the final schedule will be. A list of registered talks will be posted a couple of days before 15 May, but making a well working schedule takes a lot of time and work, which is why it won't be available until early June.

Just as an indication how things look like from a potential attendee's perspective: 1. For all people who do not get the fee (+ travel expense etc.) paid pay their employer: - "early bird" registration fee is already quite a bit of money, non-early-bird is unjustifiable, period. - registering and paying accomodation "blindly" for the whole week (including having to take vacation for all that time!) without knowing at all what will be the content of the conference is unjustifiable as well. By consequence, with your organisation, you've automatically totally ruled out participation for these people. 2. For the people who get participation paid by their employer: - they need to apply for allowance to attend the conference in the scope of their work usually quite some time in advance - their bosses will obviously want to know when the subjects which are supposed to actually concern the employee in question will be treated. Employee-days cost money, you know. In addition to the travel expense and registration fee itself. I wonder who you expect to attend the conference then? BTW: I regularly attend quite a few conferences every year concerning all kinds of subjects for my job, and I've never encountered the case that at least a detailed list of talks/subjects was NOT sent out together with the invitation AT LEAST three months in advance. BTW2: I know you're doing the organisation work as volunteers in your spare time, but then I would consider it just the more important to plan the organisation of the whole event in a way that allows a maximum of participants... As a stop-gap measure, I think it would be extremely important to publish every available bit of information about the content of the conference really urgently NOW, otherwise I'm pretty sure you WILL be frustrated about participation numbers.

I have increased the timeout from 15 minutes to 1 hour. It turned out that Twisted has a hard-coded timeout that triggers in something between 15 and 30 minutes from the last activity in the session. 2. If you hit the timeout, you will get an error message saying that you probably did so. It looks ugly, but it is better than no message at all. Making it beautiful would be more of an effort than I have time for right now. We are still a little short on talks; we have a total of 60 hours of talk slots, not counting the lightning talk sessions on Wednesday afternoon and right now we have talks filling 37 of those hours. For this reason, I propose that we extend talk submission until 7 May under the pretext of having had problems with the talk registration procedure. In the mean time,all the track chairs need to canvas their contacts, so that we get a nicely filled schedule.

We can't really move the early-bird/accomodation deadline,and people should have the possibility to see the approved list of talks before then. This means that the list of talks need to go public no later than the 11th.The track chairs need a couple of days to examine the talks and say if there are any that should be dropped or modified. I guess we could cut a day out of this time, and make the 8th the deadline for submissions.

Mai to 10. Mai. Related to this: what about tracks that are current listed as missing a track chair ? I've submitted a talk to the Python Framework track, but it is still listed as having a vacant track chair. Looking at http://pbf.strakt.com:8080/list.chtml I found 14 (!) talks (if I counted correctly) registered for that track, so there definitely seems to be an interest in the track. The other popular tracks are Zope, Business and Science, but these all have track chairs in place. I'd be willing to help out with track chairing for the Framework track, if there'd be two or three others joining in - with a team of three or four for the track, the job could be leveraged to still allow attending other talks during the conference. Merging tracks would be a possibility, e.g. Python + Framework + Misfits. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, May 05 2005) >>> Python/Zope Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ ::: Try mxODBC.Zope.DA for Windows,Linux,Solaris,FreeBSD for free ! :::: From jacob at strakt.com Thu May 5 15:08:28 2005 From: jacob at strakt.com (Jacob Hallen) Date: Thu, 5 May 2005 15:08:28 +0200 Subject: [EuroPython] Python Framework track (has our talk been accepted?)

Thanks for your offer. I'm sure I can find one or two people at Strakt who can be drafted into doing part of the track chairing as well, so I think we have a working solution for that part. The other part of track chairing is to review the submitted talks to see that we aren't getting something that is unwanted. Either that we have talks that overlap too much, there is something that seems to be sub-standard or if there is something where it would be useful to ask the speaker to modify his/her approach to the subject.

Should work: I think that one of the track chairs should be present for the intro to each new talk. If possible, I would not like the framework and business tracks to overlap, since I'd like to attend a few of the business talks. > The other part of track chairing is to review the submitted talks to see that > we aren't getting something that is unwanted.

I'm willing to join in if there is indeed a team, though I'm wary of taking on too much responsibility. I've track chaired 3 times and I would like some time off. In addition I've also submitted two talks, so if those happen I'll be busy enough.

Yes. This is not related to font scaling in browsers as such. I could of course have used the Zoom option, but the default should be readable, IMHO.

Ok, please review the list of registered talks and give me your feedback as 1-10 rating (1 - not all that interesting, 10 - must have this one) for each talk: http://www.python-in-business.org/ep2005/tracks.chtml > My personal preference is more 30 minute talks, and try to avoid > combining talks into 60 minute blocks. > > Your questions elsewhere in the thread make sense; we need to know how > many slots we have.

My own talk proposal is for 60 minutes as well - it's hard to fit a complex subject into 30 minutes. In any case, I agree that we'll probably need 8 hours total. I would welcome joining forces with some of the smaller tracks, e.g. the Misfits and the Python language tracks. If we could get 4 people for the on-site track chairing, then each of us would only have to spend 2 hours attending the track and we could then still enjoy the rest of the conference. The more people help out, the better for everyone ! BTW, I would like to repeat my request that the Python framework track and the business track not overlap; not just because I'd like to attend some business talks as well, but also because I find that both tracks have lots of interesting talks to offer and give a good view on Python from the business and the developer perspective - which is a first at EuroPython ! -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, May 09 2005) >>> Python/Zope Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ ::: Try mxODBC.Zope.DA for Windows,Linux,Solaris,FreeBSD for free ! :::: From jacob at strakt.com Mon May 9 22:28:43 2005 From: jacob at strakt.com (Jacob =?iso-8859-1?q?Hall=E9n?=) Date: Mon, 9 May 2005 22:28:43 +0200 Subject: [EuroPython] Meeting Tuesday 10 May 18.00 CET Message-ID: <200505092228.43249.jacob@strakt.com> We will have a progress meeting Tuesday at 18.00 CET. As usual we will be on the #europython channel on the freenode IRC network. The focus of the meeting will be to get the list of talks publshed. We now have 91 talks and 2 lightning talks registered. A few of the talks entries need editing before being published. There a a few things that should be changing in the list of talks: - We have only 1 talk in the Education track. If there are any talks in other tracks that fit, we should try to get them moved. If we can find any other nice talks for the Education track, we should try to get them. I have one person who spoke at Pycon that I can contact. - If there are other tracks with few talks that want to invite special persons, you can do so - I have a few special people I will want to invite. I should get around to sending the invitations this week. In any case, we should be getting a rather nice set of talks. For part of the conference we might want to run a fifth room. Since we are renting rooms by the hour, the cost of a fifth room will not be very high.

The refereed papers track has a potential candidate: A Simple Python Framework for Introducing Component Principles. But although it is about education I think it fits in refereed papers quite well, so I'd be happy to keep it if possible. By contrast, the talk CPS Platform Framework appears to be rather more business-oriented than the others in refereed papers, so I wouldn't mind if some other track chair would like to grab it :-) All in all I think the refereed papers proposals of this year are excellent, and we start to see talks of a somewhat more "academic" nature than last year's -- an encouraging step towards the purpose of the track.

Hi Raphael, the web-pages needs to be updated: we've put together a team of volunteers to do the track chairing with Martijn Faassen and myself currently doing the organizing and a few speakers helping out at the conference. However, we're still looking for volunteers to help with the above three points and are also interested in hearing feedback about the registered talks.

You get to register as a speaker if you have submitted a (serious) proposal. You don't have to be accepted as a speaker. Also, since I got no word to the contrary, we are currently claiming that we are running all the talks that have been registered. Where to find the list of talks has been widely published. I'm not all that happy with extending early-bird, because I think it sets the wrong expectations. If there is a strong opinion for extending, I will accept doing so, but I need to here more voices before changing my mind. A possibility is extending earl-bird for speakers only.

I have replied to the original message, and sent a further follow-up, but haven't received anything in return.

Note that I have decided to send this message from a different address than the one (andre.roberge at gmail.com) which was used to reach me originally, as I have nagging doubts about whether messages sent from my gmail account are getting through. I have entered the proposed description of my talk on the Europython website. Although I indicated a proposed length of 90 minutes, I could easily shorten my talk if desired. Note that I have not (yet) registered for the conference. Due to my work, I will be travelling elsewhere in Canada during the week of June 5-12, and I am scheduled to be in Austria from June 17 until June 24 (tentative dates).

The above advice is for paying by credit card. If paying by IBAN, you can simply put the payment codes in the message. The name of our bank is Swedbank.

I think something along these lines should do it: To whom it may concern, I am writing to confirm that Gaya Kanishka Jayasinghe of the Institute of Child Health, London, UK, has a place reserved on the Europython 2005 conference, 27-29 June 2005. I can further confirm that we have reserved accommodation for him from 26 to 29 June 2005 (four nights). The accommodation fees have been paid in full. The accommodation will be at the following address: SGS Veckobost?der, Utlandagatan 24, 412 80 G?teborg. Cheers, Olly.

There is no Swedish embassy here in Chennai but there is a German one where I plan to apply for a Schengen Visa. To this end I require two things for my application. 1. Some kind of official "invitation" or formal letter that I can show as proof that I am talking at EuroPython. I do have Armin's email of acceptance of my papers but am not sure if that will do. 2. A complete contact address in Sweden that I can refer to in the Visa application. Obviously, these are of some importance and reasonable urgency and I'd appreciate any assistance. Thanks!

I do not read it like you do, however, and I question the need to make a point of the fact that they are/may be different communities. I myself belong perhaps to a third kind of community, the one that never will really grok the zope vs rest-of-python controverse :-).

Yes, we will be happy to link to the EuroPython site (actually I think we have a few links already). However, we have not yet announced our site officially yet (we expect to do so Monday), but starting Tuesday morning you are welcome to link to our site at http://se.linux.org/aktuellt/traff_2005/ Thanks once again!

I have see the page about your conference in Goteburg. Please write me if this information our new release of Maguma Workbench can be interestinf for you, because i think we can make something togheter. have fun programming Alexander Comploj (Sorry my english) here are the information :: Maguma will be releasing version 2.5.0 of Workbench on the first of June and with it will come many expanded abilities to produce scripts, not only enhanced features targeting PHP developers but this time Python developers will find things to be happy about. The new version will include the ability to execute and preview Python scripts, automatically detecting the script type based on file extension settings. Also new to this version will be the profiling support for PHP scripts, giving the developer an overview of the script timings broken down by file, function and line. The Function List module has been enhanced to provide better support for future Resource Kits that give the user the ability to preparse scripts and display custom library functions and objects. File based template support has been added to Workbench, customizable so that you can use a local repository for personal use or define a network resource to share the templates among a working group. The full Changelog will be posted on the site with this release that will detail all of the many changes to Maguma Workbench. -- have fun programming Alexander Comploj ----------------------------------------------- Alexander Comploj - Marketing Maguma GmbH/Srl Via Siemens Strasse 19 39100 Bozen / Bolzano - Italy Tel. +39 - 0471 / 56 80 30 Fax +39 - 0471 / 56 83 00 alexander.comploj at maguma.com www.maguma.com ------------------------------------------------ From optilude at gmx.net Sat May 28 23:03:13 2005 From: optilude at gmx.net (Martin Aspeli) Date: Sat, 28 May 2005 23:03:13 +0200 Subject: [EuroPython] Talk details mistake on the website Message-ID: <7FCB88CB-32AB-4438-87B7-B593DDBB81C7@gmx.net> Hi, I notice on http://www.python-in-business.org/ep2005/alisttrack.chtml? track=770 that my talk is listed as the last entry. I presume this means it has been accepted? Will I receive more details on this? However, there is a "NOTE TO EDITORS" block that reads: NOTE TO EDITORS: This talk could potentially also fit in both the Business and Zope tracks. I feel the Social Aspects track is more appropriate given the focus I intend to give, and the nature of my MSc degree, which the talk will build upon, but I am flexible if you feel the talk would be better pitched differently, either in another track, or with more focus on the sociological aspects of the Plone community and the individuals therein. The talk was the suggestion of Plone co-founder Alexander Limi; as this will be my first EuroPython, I am a little unsure of the details, so please contact me if there are any questions. --- This looks a bit silly - could it please be removed?

I can also accept c), because I know that an organizer of 2006 will really commit a lot of work to 2005, even if we call this "special attention" But at last, it is mainly a point of our budget, isn't it?

My opinion is that we can afford an invitee who does not pay the conference fee. This costs us about 70 Euro in margin costs for food.
