Presented by: Holger Krekel
Talk focus: Python

This talk discusses status and plans of PyPy's Python Interpreter, with a special focus on its upcoming 1.1 release. We'll look at the list of applications that it can already run and demonstrate features such as transparent proxies and new sandboxing/virtualization approaches. PyPy's Python Interpreter is also unique in that it is written in a rich subset of Python which can get translated to C, .NET and the JVM platforms from the same source code. As time permits, we'll discuss relations to other Python implementations and look at relevant bits of the “PyPy technology cloud” in order to see what is coming next.
