Nā taku rourou: getting involved in (C)Python development
Duane Griffin

There are many ways to contribute to Python; here is mine.

It can be daunting to engage with a mature, large, and complex code base, and the associated processes, community, and culture. This talk will discuss my experience as a new CPython contributor, my approach, how it is going, things I've learned, and what I hope to do next.
