PyCon 2010 will be February 19-21 2010 in Atlanta, Georgia (US). Van Lindberg, PyCon chair, has approved having another Python Language Summit on Thursday, February 18 2010. The web page for it is <http://us.pycon.org/2010/about/summits/language/>

The Python Language Summit is an invitation-only event for developers of Python implementations and the standard library, to discuss issues of common concern to all implementors.

It will mostly be organized similarly to last year's event. I'm going to drop the initial open discussion, which wasn't very useful, and we'll just have three 1.5-hour discussion sessions. The fourth time slot will be left open for chatting, development, or whatever the attendees want to do.

We therefore need to decide what those three sessions should be about. Please discuss on python-dev and hopefully we can arrive at some consensus on topics of reasonably wide current interest. (See http://us.pycon.org/2009/about/summits/language/ for a reminder of last year's topics.)

Feel free to raise discussions on other lists such as jython-dev, catalog-sig, or wherever, but please summarize the results here on python-dev; I won't see discussions on other lists.

Like last time, invitations will be sent to the committers for Python, Jython, IronPython, PyPy, Pynie, plus a few extra people and projects. If you want to suggest another project or person who should be invited, please send me a private e-mail.
