<div>Hi,</div><div><br></div><div>Thought I'd point out some Twisted-related talks at PyCon; I may have missed a few.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><b>Tutorials</b></div><div><br></div><div>Jessica "jesstess" McKellar is teaching two tutorials, one of which teaches the basics of contributing to open source projects, in case you've wanted to contribute to Twisted but haven't yet figured out the process: <a href="https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/4/">https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/4/</a>.</div>
<div><br></div><div><div>I will be teaching a tutorial on test-driven development with Twisted, explaining how to build robust, well-tested applications:</div><div><a href="https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/15/">https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/15/</a></div>
</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><b>Talks</b></div><div><b><br></b></div><div>Jessica McKellar will be giving a talk on "How the Internet Works", which will be including some demonstrations using Twisted: <a href="https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/50/">https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/50/</a>.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Ashwini "ashfall" Oruganti, one of our Google Summer of Code interns, will be talking about endpoints, Deferreds and more: <a href="https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/40/">https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/40/</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>Glyph Lefkowitz will be rudely-yet-jokingly insulting Javascript programmers in his talk on event-driven programming: <a href="https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/120/">https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/120/</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>Armin Rigo will be talking about Software Transactional Memory and removing the GIL from PyPy (we will hopefully have a multi-core reactor soon after this becomes usable): <a href="https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/37/">https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/37/</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>Allen "dash" Short will be talking about Parsley, his parsing library: <a href="https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/84/">https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/84/</a></div>

<div>Brad Kuhn, of the Software Freedom Conservancy (Twisted's non-profit sponsor), will be talking about funding open source projects, using among others Twisted as an example: <a href="https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/48/">https://us.pycon.org/2013/schedule/presentation/48/</a></div>
<div><br></div><div><br></div><div><b>Other</b></div><div><b><br></b></div><div>Jessica McKellar will be giving one of the keynote addresses, though it probably has nothing to do with Twisted. (The posters list isn't up yet, but I'm betting Jessica will also have a poster.)</div>
<div><b><br></b></div><div>I believe that as with every year we will be having a development sprint after the main conference, and a birds-of-feather session at some point.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>-Itamar</div>
