This was an excelllent presentation. Jacob Kaplan-Moss, Simon Wilson and Jeremy Dunck presented on Django, covering a number of very useful topics. A couple of these things were areas I really needed to get my head around, so this helped a lot. My highlights:
- Unit Testing - An excellent overview of the testing available testing methods and how to use them.
- Middleware == Rails Filters (not Java/Enterprise Middleware)
- Forms with AJAX how-to. jQuery looks like a nice AJAX library.
- Custom Model Fields - actually telling you how to do this.
Jacob has posted the slides and notes online, read them and take advantage of this cool stuff and more.

This might make a great guide for a hands on hacking night.
Wow, how did they make the presentation? All the different formats are great! Oh, and django is pretty cool too.
I'm pretty sure that they used keynote for the presentation.
