[Inpycon] mapping party at the PyCon India

[Harihara Vinayakaram]

Given all the hype about Cloud Computing will there be any interest about
Disco (http://www.discoproject.org) . I have some experience in running a
Disco Cluster . This is a Hadoop equivalent  . I can maybe talk about
setting up a Haddop cluster and writing jobs for it versus doing it for a
Disco Cluster.  But i have not heard too much noise about the project so not
sure if that will be well received

Regards
Hari
