What: Django Software Foundation Membership Open Space When: Wednesday, August 26th, 1:00 pm to 1:45 pm Where: Wolf Point Ballroom, voco Chicago Downtown Schedule: Talks: Wednesday, Aug 26 DSF Board Directors Jeff Triplett, Abigail Afi Gbadago, and Paolo Melchiorre will be there, along with Django Fellows, Steering Council members, and other DSF members. This is an open space, not a talk. Pull up a chair and bring your questions. What We Want to Talk About Fundraising and finances. We raised our 2026 goal to $500,000. We'll cover what it funds, most of it the Django Fellows, and how we are tracking against it. If your company depends on Django, or you know one that does, ask us about corporate membership and sponsorship. The Executive Director search. The DSF is hiring its first Executive Director, and applications are open through midnight Central Time on September 14, 2026. If you are thinking about applying, or know someone who should, ask us about the role. Membership. How individual membership works, how people become members, and what members do. Members vote in DSF elections, and we would like more of you to. Working groups and teams. You don't need to be a DSF member to join a working group, and we could use your help. Teams work a little differently, and we can explain the difference. The Steering Council. A short update on DEP 19, which rewrites Django's technical governance, and DEP 20, which moves Django to one feature release a year. This is your time as much as ours. If you have a question about how the Foundation spends its money, how decisions get made, or why something is the way it is, ask it. We would rather answer a hard question in a room in Chicago than in a thread three weeks from now. One note on scope: this session is about the Foundation, not about code. We will touch on the DEPs above, but patches, ORM internals, and your favorite tic ## The Real Python Podcast - Episode #303: Free-Threaded Python's History & uv in Production DevFeed: [The Real Python Podcast - Episode #303: Free-Threaded Python's History & uv in Production]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: Real Python Published: 2026-07-17T12:00:00Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [Real Python]() Topics: [Python](), [Concurrent Programming](), [Concurrency](), [Wagtail](), [Django](), [Compiler](), [GitHub Copilot CLI](), [Model Context Protocol]() Tags: [article](), [cli](), [github-copilot](), [github-copilot-cli](), [locks](), [mcp](), [podcast](), [production](), [python](), [techniques]() ### AI overview This podcast episode discusses the history of attempts to remove Python's Global Interpreter Lock, the current free-threaded Python approach, and the challenges of running multiple tasks concurrently within one process.
