The presenter, Frank Wierzbicki, is a co-lead maintainer of Jython.

"Next TriZPUG Meeting: Thursday October 22, 7pm at Carrboro Creative Coworking, 205 Lloyd Street, Suite 101, Carrboro, North Carolina 27510. Frank Wierzbicki will present a talk on Jython that is a preview for his PyCon talk. Other talks at the meeting are welcome if time allows. Parking is plentiful and free. The after-meeting will be at The Station at 201-C East Main Street in Carrboro, just a short walk away.

Jython is an implementation of Python for the JVM. This talk covers the options available for integrating Jython and Java code, especially Java calling into Jython, since this is the trickier case. This talk will also cover some Java specific deployment options, such as deploying your Jython application as a jar file. Jar files allow you to package Java/Jython applications into a single archive. In many environments a user can click a jar file to launch the contained application."
