PyPy's Python status and plans ==================================== In this talk we'd like to discuss the status and plans for the near and mid-term future of PyPy's Python Interpreter, particularly its upcoming 1.1 release. We'll look at what kind of applications you can already run and where more work and help is needed. The talk also aims to clarify what is the "PyPy technology cloud". There also should be room to discuss and demo some current highlights such as PyPy's robust virtualization/sandboxing approach for Python programs. level: beginner to intermediate duration: 45 minutes biography ------------ Holger Krekel is a co-founder of the PyPy project and participates on many levels in it.
