The February meeting was last night. Xteric Technology Group hosted the meeting and provided pizza. Mike Pirnat and David Stanek gave a preview of their forthcoming PyCon presentation on the use of Python in an enterprise-wide, highly scalable, and redundant environment. Their talk will give good ammunition for those faced with the ‘python is too slow for enterprise usage’ argument. David then followed up with an eye-opening overview of the Kid Templating system. I had written off Kid due to its affinity for XML and my happiness with Cheetah, but the enthusiastic support of Kid at the meeting convinced me to take a look at it some day.
