The PyCon Experience

Although I love using Python, I hardly consider myself an experienced programmer. So I wasn’t sure what to expect from my first PyCon, which began today at GWU’s Cafritz Center. But the sessions I attended were accessible, useful and even entertaining. I didn’t feel like an insider, but I wasn’t a total outsider, either. I especially liked the Scripting the Mac session, which showed off AppScript, and the two talks devoted to the new Decimal module in 2.4. And I found what looks to be a pretty cool way to handle XML data, too. Looking forward to tomorrow’s sessions!
