This announcement is also available on our web-site for online reading: http://www.egenix.com/company/news/EuroPython-2007-Presentations.html ________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION The EuroPython Conference is the one of the premier conferences for Python & Zope users and developers. This year it was being held from the 9th to 11th July in Vilnius, Lithuania. eGenix was one of the founding members of the EuroPython conference team and played a major role in organizing the first EuroPython conference in the year 2002. Since then we have attended every EuroPython conference to meet up face-to-face with the people from the Python & Zope communities and have given regular talks at these conferences. ________________________________________________________________________ TALKS AT EUROPYTHON 2007 We gave the following two talks at the conference. The presentations are available for viewing and download from our Presentations and Talks section: http://www.egenix.com/library/presentations/ As special feature, we have added talk videos in addition to providing the slide PDFs. You can view the talks online if you have the Adobe Flash Player 8 or later installed. * Parsing Languages with mxTextTools mxTextTools comes with a high performance Tagging Engine for text and Unicode data which can be used to tokenize and parse languages. The resulting abstract syntax tree can then be hooked up to a generator to build a complete and fast compiler in pure Python. The talk gives a short introduction to the way the mxTextTools Tagging Engine works and how it can be used to build compilers. mxTextTools is an eGenix Open Source product available as part of the eGenix mx Base Distribution. * An introduction to working with relational databases from Zope Although Zope has been around for quite a while, it continues to find new users particularly amongst non-programmers who are looking for a way to work with existing data which is usually in some relational database (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MS SQL, Oracle, DB2, etc.). One of the reasons for this is that Zope provides an extremely powerful, yet secure, through-the-web programming environment. The presentation is directed towards new users and will provide a brief introduction by example into the Zope way of doing things. At the same time it highlights how working within Zope is automatic training in good programming methodology: data management is delegated to ZSQL methods, PythonScripts act as controllers and Zope Page Templates provide the views. Together they encourage modularity and reusability. The sample application and database are available for download.
