[http://www.python.org/psf PSF] president [http://www.python.org/moin/StephanDeibel Stephan Deibel] aptly observed that these are "needed:

• Slides / notes for presentation overviewing the PSF (I have some very simple slides I can provide as a start to whoever takes this on, and can help but can't lead this)
• Course materials for an "evangelism training seminar"
• Review of PSF web pages to make them more evangelist-friendly
• Possibly, printable handouts and other supplementary materials".

This [http://python.org/moin Wiki] page is where we'll start to flesh out Stephan's outline.

Isn't someone else keeping a list of killer apps? Anyway, Mailman belongs.

Also available, on request: both Stephan (through the psf-volunteers list) and evangelism support materials czar [http://python.org/moin/CameronLaird Cameron Laird] maintain a list of volunteers at least occasionally available to speak on Python, sorted by locale (DC, Seattle, Texas, Central America, and so on).

Other highlights I want to elaborate: Pythonology; language comparisons; presentation tips; PBF ...; Greg's eShop story; ...
