Log:
a first draft of the 22C3 proposal, everybody 
who wants to participate: coordinate with 
me and Carl and most important: add your 
speaker information! 

comments on the talk scope welcome.  I know
that it's pretty stuffed but i also think
that it doesn't make sense (as opposed to 
EuroPython conferences) to go into too many
details. Rather i'd like to touch areas 
and allow people to have questions. 
(The talk is 60 minutes overall, but 
45 minutes and then questions is recommended)

+Title: PyPy - the new Python implementation on the block 
+
+Subtitle: Language/VM R&D, whole program type inference, 
+          translation to low level backends, fun. 
+
+Section: Hacking 
+
+Talkers: ... 
+
+Abstract (max 250 letters): 
+
+    We'll present results of our first self-contained translated 
+    Python virtual machine using parts of itself ("the muenchhausen
+    approach"). We are going to relate our research/technical results 
+    to other language-research aspects found with Perl 6 and Haskell. 
+
+    Development of PyPy is partly funded by the European Union 
+    during the 6th Research Framework programme. 
+
+Description (250-500 words): 
+
+    PyPy is a reimplementation of Python written in Python
+    itself, flexible and easy to experiment with. Our
+    long-term goals are to target a large variety of
+    platforms, small and large, by providing a compiler
+    toolsuite that can produce custom Python versions.
+    Platform, Memory and Threading models are becoming 
+    aspects of the translation process - as opposed to
+    encoding low level details into a language implementation
+    itself.  
+
+    We are going to briefly describe the concepts of object spaces, 
+    abstract interpretation and translation aspects and
+    how they lead us to producing a first self-contained 
+    very compliant Python implementation August 2005,
+    completely independent from the current mainstream 
+    CPython implementation.  We go through a translation
+    example of a Python program with control-flow-graphs 
+    and the according translated lowlevel C and 
+    LLVM (Low level Virtual Machine) code. 
+
+    We'll also try to relate PyPy's architectural concepts 
+    (known roughly for 2-3 years) to similar upcoming concepts 
+    in e.g. pugs/Perl 6 development and we'll give an 
+    outlook on our starting Just-In-Time Compiler efforts
+    and approaches. 
+
+    Lastly, we intend to discuss experimental new language/interpreter-level 
+    solutions to long-standing problems such as distributed computing, 
+    persistence and security/sandboxing. 
+
+Statement: We intend to submit a paper (PDF) for the 22C3 proceedings. 
+Statement: We intend to submit a slides PDF as well.
