This conference is great fun and incredibly informative. I’ve met just about everyone I’ve written to and for in this community, and that alone made my day.

Kudos to Catherine Devlin, who is quietly but heavily involved in the core Python community (are you on the PSF? Please brag, so we know what you’re doing). I’ve followed her Oracle/SqlAlchemy articles for a while, and saw her name on some organizers lists, and admired her tecchie effort from afar. It was awesome to actually meet her.

Many thanks to Desi and Hashrocket, for hosting the DevChix gathering tonight in Chicago. A Ruby project implementation company hosting a Python gathering, how cool is that? You can’t help but feel the DevChix unity.

Also, a personal thanks to Alex for essentially letting me live ather house for ten days, through late night work and code sprints, whistling tea pots at 2AM, and so forth. You rock.
