In Pursuit of a Pythonic PhD

Talk/Paper Abstract

+ + +

In May of 2005, I started a pilgrimage to transform myself into +a doctor of engineering. Little did I know, then, that my +journey would bring me in touch with some of the most creative, +vibrant and inspiring minds in the open source world, and that +an opportunity would arise to help realise their (and now my) +dream: a completely free and open environment for performing +cutting edge science. In this talk, I take you on my journey, +and along the way introduce the NumPy and SciPy projects, our +community, the early days of packaging, our documentation +project, the publication of conference proceedings as well as +work-shops and sprints around the world. I may even tell you a +bit about my PhD on super-resolution imaging! +
