Here are some I can think of<br>- Blogs (your own or any other tech. blogs you're a member of)<br>- Twitter/identica<br>- Mailing lists you're part of (FOSS/Python ones)<br>- IF there are any people here on planet Python (I know Baiju is), then it would have more visibility if they posted. <br>

1. Put the calendar on the front page. We have a "dates" heading there with no dates below that. You can put up the dates from the CFP there along with a 25/26 September : Days of the conf. <br></blockquote></div>
</div></div></blockquote></div><div><br> I have put the CFP dates and linked the CFP to front page.<br> I am going to announce this in pycon blog and twitter soon.<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

<br>Apart from that, we're good to go. I emphasise again, we *need* to publicise this. The number of good papers that come in is directly proportional to how much we publicise. If the publicity is limited, the talks will be limited and we'll get the conference that we deserve. For everyone who felt that last years conference had bad talks, this is the time to put your money where your mouth is! :)<br>
