Panel: Python VMs
Presented by Jacob Kaplan-Moss, Brett Cannon, Maciej Fijalkowski, Frank Wierzbicki, Dino Viehland
Python is lucky enough to have a healthy ecosystem of virtual machines (VMs) exist. CPython, Jython, IronPython, and PyPy are all used extensively by people in real-world situations. This panel brings together a representative from each of the major VMs to discuss where they are now, going in the future, and to answer questions from the community.
Abstract

- CPython: Brett Cannon
- Jython: Frank Wierzbicki
- IronPython: Dino Viehland
- PyPy: Maciej Fijalkowski Moderation will be handled by Jacob Kaplan-Moss of Django.
