Python's web ecosystem is richer than ever. For every part of the web application
stack, there are more choices than ever, and there are more full-stack web frameworks
than ever. Every application has different requirements, which makes choice useful.
In my talk, I will discuss how the Python web landscape has been changing and how
it's possible to have choices and still avoid reinventing...

The Web Server Gateway Interface is a standard interface between web servers and
Python web applications or frameworks, to promote web application portability
across a variety of web servers. Although the specification has been around
since 2003 there is still a broad lack of understanding in the Python web
community about the WSGI and why it is so useful. This hands-on talk will...

For many people, ArchGenXML is the most attractive way to get started with Plone
development. Generating your content types from a UML class diagram is easy and
fast, especially as ArchGenXML sets up all the "bookkeeping code" for you: the
__init__, the Install.py, etc. The presentation will cover this and I'll also
show how to modify the generated code to your special needs.

For web/browser-based applications/AJAX-applications it is important to

There are exsisting protocalls, e.g. SOAP the not so Simple Object Access
Protocol, that are rich in features but rather complex. This complexity is not
needed for a lot of use cases. This is where JSON-RPC fits into the picture. It
