Lightning Talks
summary
Quick-fire demos and community updates give concrete claims and tools: building a PyData track in Florence (plans and dates), video analytics with NumPy OpenCV and FFmpeg (research prototypes, published papers not products), Excel Wings + ExcelPython (read/write, Mac support, calling Python from Excel), a TODO/fixme analyzer (scans large repos, finds decades‑old tags), arXiv semantic recommendations (word2vec demo), and Vagrant + SaltStack provisioning of SciPy (works but takes ~15–20 minutes).
