Convince My Boss - Convincing made easy
by Vipul Gupta June 9, 2018

June 9, 2018

Hi folks, A few weeks ago, I proposed having a new section called "Convince My Boss" in this year's PyCon India 2018 on the Discord channel. I have been working on the same. Here is the first draft [1]. For people who don't know, Convince My Boss is a section which I thought could be a great new addition from this year's PyCon India. *Convince my Boss* is a letter template aimed at helping professionals to make their case so that they could attend the conference. It presents all important conference highlights and advantages in great detail. Helping in *convincing* the bosses to have the person attend it. I have noticed the same, at other conferences too that happen around the world. I think it could be a great addition for this year and subsequent year's PyCon. Any suggestions and queries are much appreciated !!

Discord Usage Guidelines for Volunteers
by Ananyo Maiti June 6, 2018

June 6, 2018

Hi all, We recently came to know volunteers were facing some difficulty in using Discord, the communication platform we chose for volunteers. Discord has a lot of good features and missing some. So I thought of compiling a document to highlight all the features so that people can use it more comfortably and follow all the updates. Here is the document[1] listing all the features. Do give it a read and let me know if there are other good features or corrections required so that I can update the doc.

by akshita gupta May 31, 2018

May 31, 2018

Dear sir, I am a final year student and will graduate this July. I have also submitted a proposal for a workshop titled " *Getting Started with Deep Learning*". I wanted to ask, can I apply for student tickets? As I will still have my college id with me at the time of the conference. It would be great if you could guide me regarding the pycon workshop proposal selection. Me with my team-mate will be the first-time speaker. so, I applied for a mentor but no reply came from pycon. Hope to hear from you soon. With Warm Regards, Akshita Gupta B. Tech IV year, Computer Science and Engineering Semester exchange student Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee +91-9690520175
