Mobile web apps on tablets : the web2py framework revisited

 * Abstract/description
 * Last year in Berlin I gave a longish advocacy talk about the merits of web apps on the tablets, as a way for "normal humans" to fill their own needs. I also advocated Python and a framework called web2py for doing this, and ended with a peek at one of my real-life apps. I did not go into any technical detail however.
 * If the schedule allows it, I thought I might do a follow-up this year, focusing on a more in-depth presentation of web2py : its general philosophy, what services are offered, a tour of its friendly web administration and development interface, etc. No actual coding, except for a few typical idioms and a demo app.
