+1 for inviting someone from  PyPy Gang.

How about making Python implementations a major theme of our conference?

I know an interesting project of implementing Python in Racket.

https://github.com/brownplt/lambda-py

(disclaimer: I've contributed in a small way to that project)

We can see if we can get one of the key devs of the project to come and
give a talk here.
