This is one of those headlines you definitely have to go read to clarify english meaning. There is "row" -when you get 4 people in a panel session and they go off at each other and have a row about what "freedom" means, and somebody storms off stage. This is actually what I thought it meant. Some kind of an argument between the 8 companies, at PyCon. Welcome! now .. FIGHT!

And there's "row" -when you make a laneway available in the coffee area for booths, and call it a row, a street, and laneway, and invite 8 early stage companies to showcase their work there.

Then there's what I do on the river at 5am in a scull. Sometimes it's more like the first meaning when we can't agree about the pace or another rowing shell bumps into us.
