I think we actually stand a good chance in getting two accepted, 
especially if we cross one of them over into Zope 3. It's a hunch only, 
based on previous experiences track chairing EuroPython.

Very little room to do this adequately in half an hour. That's why I 
proposed the intro / technical intro split. We could always fall back on 
a single talk if only one of the two gets accepted, so we don't have 
that much to lose in proposing two.
