Thanks for posting this.    The trend towards blogging is not new.  It feels like a pretty good venue for this sort of thing ---  and it let's the mailing lists stay more technical.

"Big-Data" does have a lot of "Big-Hype" but it is my opinion that there are user-stories that the SciPy community would be wise to address.  The PyData workshop was basically an attempt to make sure that the noise around Strata at least has some "Python".   It was also a chance to be in the same room as many people active in the larger SciPy community as a pre-cursor to PyCon.

With R getting a lot of attention from Venture Capitalists, there are a lot of people who are "new" to so-called "Data-Science" who are being pushed to "R" instead of Python because of the larger market messaging.   Their use-cases are not informing this community as much as it could be.  Wes McKinney, fortunately, is doing a lot of work to change that.

Yes, thank you.
I wasn't sure I will keep it up, but now it's one command to go from
rst file to blogger.
The next posts should be more technical.

hello,

> http://jpktd.blogspot.com/2012/03/data-in-python.html
Is there any information if the slides an materials will be published
for those who couldn't attend?


I'd be interested also if the materials of the following meeting will be
published:
Data analysis in Python with pandas
https://us.pycon.org/2012/schedule/presentation/427/

It's just difficult to fly round the globe for just one day...

Regards,
Timmie

hi Timmie,

I will definitely post materials from my pandas tutorial (which are at
the moment a bit scattered, becoming less so over the next couple
days) and my talk at PyCon. I'm also due to cut some screencasts of
recent demos.

Some videos from the PyData workshop will also be published since we
had a recording crew.

cheers,
Wes

Good news.
Your effort is really appreciated. Thanks.
