Someone to lead the whole affair. My suggestion would be to hold a small one day thing for (say) a 100 people somewhere in the NCR region before PyCon this year. It shouldn't be that hard to manage and the little things will all fall into place. Once that's done, you'll have enough "on the ground" stuff ready to host PyCon India next year.

+1 I was about to suggest the same. Also, try to get some sponsorships from NCR for this year's PyCon India. That'll give you confidence that you can get enough sponsorships for near year. Anand

How about the current and past Pycon India organizers help reflux this document https://github.com/pythonindia/pyconindia-handbook The next set of task as I see for now are: 1. Form a team and distribute responsibilities. 2. Milestone 1: Get 5+ sponsors from python-ncr region for this year 3. Milestone 2: Prepare a list of essentials requirements for a event like this e.g. food, accommodation, wifi, space, etc. List of communication channels specific to python-ncr as of now are: Mailing List: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/ncr-python.in Meetup: http://www.meetup.com/Python-Meetup-Delhi-NCR/ Github: https://github.com/NCR-Python Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ncrpython Gitter: https://gitter.im/NCR-Python -- **Saurabh Kumar https://saurabh-kumar.com On Fri, May 22, 2015 at 9:49 PM, Anand Chitipothu <anandology@gmail.com> wrote:

Thanks everyone for taking out your time and filling up the form and/or helping spread the word. We have received initial list of 28 awesome volunteers. Please fill-out the form if you have missed out. The next goal is to setup a meet-up (either in physical world or hangout) to plan out: - milestones - timelines - teams - responsibilities - resource management All the volunteers who have opted-in, shall get an email very soon for the same. Cheers, -- **Saurabh Kumar https://saurabh-kumar.com
I don't mean to be a wet blanket but like I said, PyCon India is something in which multiple are interested so I don't think it's unilaterally possible to just "decide" that it should be in Delhi (or anywhere else). If there's a lot of work done which is all wasted because of some snag, it would be a pity. What would be a good idea, as I've mentioned, is to organise a smaller conference (preferably before PyCon India 2015) and run it so that all the pieces are in place. After that, making a pitch at Bangalore would be a lot more solid. The upshot is that, please don't focus your efforts (yet) on PyCon India 2016 but on a local event for now. PyCon India 2016 can be a long term aim. On Thu, May 28 2015, Saurabh Kumar wrote:

This was an effort to get the volunteers assembled. Now we shall meet and try to set our milestones for the foreseeable future. Not a "decision", but a resolution to try our best.
What would be a good idea, as I've mentioned, is to organise a smaller conference (preferably before PyCon India 2015) and run it so that all the pieces are in place. After that, making a pitch at Bangalore would be a lot more solid.
Point noted.
The upshot is that, please don't focus your efforts (yet) on PyCon India 2016 but on a local event for now. PyCon India 2016 can be a long term aim.
In the meeting, we shall try to determine the feasibility of mini-conference or for that matter PyCon India - Delhi Edition itself. @Noufal, thanks. Keep the suggestion coming :) Cheers -- Anuvrat
