Pure python? Not really. We don't have talks on perl/node/whatever, but 
we do have talks on django (web), plone (cms), GIS systems, etc.

There aren't many talks that are pure about something very 
python-internal. There was one at the last PUN, though, a nice one about 
"async, coroutines, event loops", which looks a bit like the "Python, 
Parallelism and Concurrency" that you've planned :-)

Dutch-language? All the talks are in English, unless everyone 
understands Dutch.
Most of the talking during the breaks is in Dutch unless there's someone 
standing next to you that talks English. Perhaps this is different at 
the Byte meetings?

How long are the talks at Byte? I'm used to (2) talks of max 30 minutes. 
Sounds like you do 15 minute talks or so?
