19 01 2010The django translation sprint was a clear success. A team of eight sprinters worked on the Django documentation and after an intense training session on the toolchain, we were able complete a sizable part of the API documentation. Our coach, Mathieu Leduc-Hamel, did a great job pinpointing the relevent documents and supporting the team during our moments of struggle with Mercurial and Sphinx.
This is definitely an adventure that we want to revisit. We estimate that with three or four additional sittings, we would be able to reach the complete translation of the documentation.
Thanks to Brasseurs Numériques for hosting the event and Congratulations to the sprint team:

Here is our schedule for the evening:
Flash presenters are going to be:
Our main presenter will be Alexandre Bourget and he is going to talk about Pylons, the swiss army knife of Python Web development.
In this session, we’re going to go through the main components of Pylons, with live demos of each piece of the stack: templating engines, persistence models, controllers, WSGI bricks, and some deployment scenarios. We’ll also have some little comparisons between frameworks; how Pylons relates to other frameworks and languages.
Alexandre is a passionate Python specialist who teaches the language as a main trainer at Savoir-Faire Linux. He is also the creator and main developer of SFLVault, an open source authentication information management software project, and contributes to other packages such as FormAlchemy.
Alexandre is also Consultant and Development Director at Savoir-Faire Linux, where he integrates different web technologies around open source.
We want to thank our sponsors for making Montréal-Python 11
