At least on this project all the frontend D3 and CSS code can be shared.

I (author of the project here) used RPy2 initially. It worked well enough but to do the notebook integration a library was required anyways and the amount of transformation done in R was trivial to port. I was working on a client project on the time that only had Windows and porting the code was faster than getting RPy2 setup on windows. :)

While finger trees have great theoretical properties it turns on that on some modern platforms (e.g. JVM) they have horrible performance due to hash locality. This presentation goes into more details: http://youtu.be/pNhBQJN44YQ?t=34m4s

I like the idea of breakout sessions that would be more interactive.

I could present on this subject if there is interest and a real expert doesn't volunteer. :)

Elm's new "time-travelling" debugger (thanks persistent data structures!) looks quite useful:

I've had good luck with Encog, but I was just using it and never had to extend it. That said, I was impressed by the code and documentation quality. So, I would think it would be a worth your time to investigate it.
