This message is probably a bit premature, but I was thinking about=20 travel and Python conferences for next year, so I thought I would share=20= my plans. Since I expect PythonCard 1.0 to be finished this winter,=20 once wxPython 2.6 is released, I thought next year would be a good time=20= to do some PythonCard promotion and training. What I'm planning to do=20 is submit PythonCard talks and tutorials to PyCon and Python UK and=20 OSCON. My proposals will probably be intros, so if anyone wants to make=20= submissions that touch on more advanced topics, specific tools, or=20 applications they've built with PythonCard, I expect those would also=20 make for interesting talks. I wouldn't mind seeing some submissions for=20= intros to Python and GUI programming that just happen to use PythonCard=20= as the learning platform. ;-) Even if my submissions aren't accepted, I will attend the conferences=20 and if there is interest, I'll also do a PythonCard BOF and/or coding=20 sprint. I've added a wiki page in case you plan to attend some of the=20 Python conferences next year and you want to add your name. http://wiki.wxpython.org/index.cgi/PythonCardConferences PyCon 2005 - March 23-25, 2005, George Washington University, DC (same=20= location as last two years) Sprints will be taking place on the weekend after the conference, on=20 March 26 and 27. Python UK Conference - April 20-23, 2005, Randolph Hotel, Oxford http://www.accu.org/conference/ The Python track hasn't been officially announced, but there will be=20 one and the word should go out in the few weeks. I hope to do some vacation travel in the UK as well. EuroPython - June 27 - July 1, 2005, G=F6teborg, Sweden http://www.europython.org/ I haven't made a decision about EuroPython yet. OSCON 2005 - date and location unannounced West Coast Python conference - unknown This year we had VanPy in Vancouver, BC after OSCON and I won't be=20 surprised if there is a repeat of VanPy in 2005 or perhaps a conference=20= that combines SciPy and more general topics, sort of a West Coast=20 PyCon. ka= |
