IMO, there is enough time to plan for in.pycon in Sept --a local
event. Reg, foreign speakers, it was mentioned in earlier threads,
some said it should be Indian and there were a lot more suggestions
BUT there was no firm consensus on whether we _should_ nor who should
be invited for 2010 and _how_ this would impact the budget.  Well, if
we can find corporate sponsors for the speakers without draining last
years pool.... yay, Great :) Until then I prefer to err on the "local"
side :)

For the above, we need to decide on the "city" first, dates and venue
next and then the rest...............
