being a part of PyTexas. We would love to host a happy hour or after hours

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">Hi Haley,<br>
<br>
Thanks for contacting me.<br>
<br>
PyTexas is small regional conference for Python enthusiasts and professionals,
as well as beginners interested in learning the language. The approach and
content is inspired by the larger PyCon conferences, intended to be fun and
build the local open source community.<br>
<br>
Unlike PyCon, we aren't charging any money for 'sponsorship'. Any organization
with an interest in Python is welcome to send us their 'swag', usually
promotional items like flyers, t-shirts, bags, mugs, toys, etc. If you
want Python developers to send you their resume, you can produce a flyer, or
post to our wiki page (see <a href="http://pytexas.org" target="_blank">pytexas.org</a>).
<br>
<br>
In your case, RackSpace is likely to be popular, especially due to your recent
open source announcements. T-shirts are often a favorite item, and shirts
advertising OpenStack would probably be a hit.<br>
<br>
We'll be putting together the tentative schedule this weekend. Currently
we're planning for about 70 attendees.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">One
of my devs, John Dickinson, just let me know several of them are attending this
event. He mentioned you were wanting some sponsorship materials, swag, etc.
Please let me know what you have in mind and I will work on making this all
happen.</p>

you have an agenda or list of speakers/topics for this event yet?</p>
