Do you need Child Care in PyCon India 2019?
by Sharmila Gopirajan May 29, 2019

May 29, 2019

At PyCon India 2019, we are looking at ways to make the conference more inclusive and accessible for people from different race, background, gender and physical abilities. We have formed a diversity workgroup, to cater to this and to others aspects of diversity. In line with this, we would like to make the conference more supportive of young parents in general and young mothers in particular. In a few days, we plan to open the tickets for PyCon India 2019. The venue is at Chennai and the dates are from 12-15 Oct 2019. If anyone would like to opt for ChildCare, please let us know. If we have enough takers, we would take great pleasure in arranging an onsite child care for your little ones. Regards, Sharmila (On behalf of PyCon India 2019 team )

Regarding Speaker Recommendation for PyCon India 2019
by Rengaraj D May 20, 2019

May 20, 2019

Hi All PyCon India 2019 wants to fairly represent the complete Python community in India. That means not just the Python experts. It also means people from unrelated fields for whom Python just happened to be the best tool for their job. A tinkerer who made magic with Python. A Pythonista from an underrepresented community. A novice, learning Python from the first time (because learning Python now is not the same as learning Python a decade back). You can recommend any number of speakers. It is an opportunity to discover the hidden gems of our community. Any Pythonista you believe may have something to share, please recommend. We want to email to them, inviting them to submit a proposal for a talk in PyCon India 2019. If you want to propose a talk, the Call For Proposal page is https://in.pycon.org/cfp/2019/proposals/ . Thank you for making PyCon India a better community. Regards Rengaraj On Behalf of PyCon India Organizing Team

LinkedIn Company Page
by Vijay Kumar May 17, 2019

May 17, 2019

Hi Everyone, We have created a new company page for PyCon India, on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/pyconindia/ The reasons for creating the page is outlined below: * We wanted a mechanism for reaching out to people through LinkedIn. * The existing company page https://www.linkedin.com/company/pycon-india is not accessible. We do not know who has admin access, and hence we are not able to post on that company page. * We have a LinkedIn Group https://www.linkedin.com/groups/3203762/ but that is only useful for communicating within the group. And is not useful for promotion of the conference outside the group. You can help by following the LinkedIn company page, and like-ing our posts, to help spread the word on LinkedIn. Regards, Vijay
