Pycon Argentina 2009 Day 1
I am tired as a dog, back home after day 1 of PyCon Argentina 2009.
So, what happened:
I was late with my brochures because the train got delayed (doors were not closing, so we had to change trains)
Anyway, I got there kinda in time (about 30 minutes after registration started)

Saw the final printed version of the python tutorial in spanish. He is experimenting with very low cost printing to use for educational purposes. It looks nice, and I am a very proud uncle, since it was typeset using rst2pdf!
I hope I can get a copy tomorrow!
Then the lights went out, so had a coke with Leito
Then lunch
Saw Karucha's Juegos educativos con PyGame
Grabbed a precious seat near a power outlet and worked in...

My A spellchecker in 5 minutes lightning talk! Based in this Norvig code
I think it went fine. At least it lasted EXACTLY 5 minutes and covered all the slides :-)
Talked a minute with Jacob Kaplan-Moss, told him I wrote rst2pdf, he said he likes it (blush) and maybe something about using it to generate custom books to sell via lulu.com
Now, to finish writing my slides for tomorrow!
