Dear Noufal, This is very sad news for PyCon. You have been putting lot of personal energy to make it work. I will happy share the offline activities and pursue them with your guidance and advise, but i think you should not skip the event. Do something man! - sree On 20 April 2012 01:52, Noufal Ibrahim <noufal@gmail.com> wrote:
Hello everyone, I'm afraid that due to some personal matters, I'll have to pull back a little from PyCon India this year. I'm not sure if I'll be able to show up for the event either since Septmber is going to be rather tight for me.
I've sent the financial calculations and a rudimentary sponsorship brochure in a separate email.
I have a list of companies who I approached in the US who might be interested in sponsoring the event if we move quickly enough.
I also have a list of people who are willing to come as keynote speakers if we can contact them and finalise the dates and other things quickly.
If someone else can take the reigns, I can send introductory emails etc.
Thanks!
