As I suspected, there will be PewPews at EuroPython 2019! https://blog.europython.eu/post/185584014022/europython-2019-warning-spoiler... What a nice welcome to my first EuroPython! Congrats to Radomir and whoever else helped for pulling this off. The mentor sign-up form says it is no longer accepting responses, 45 minutes after the blog post - I'm not sure if that means you're inundated with offers, but if not, I would love helping run these workhshops. -Christian

It was a lot of work from the EuroPython board and in particular Marc-Andre Lemburg that allowed this to happen. The form might have a limit of 20 people, because that's how many I can teach at once reliably, but we will have a whole room for PewPew workshops and hacking for two days (Monday and Tuesday), and I'm sure we will find some place afterwards as well (and there are also sprints), so I'm sure there will be a lot of opportunity to help everyone and to do things together.

Congratulations, this is a great news. I wanted to come to help you handling workshops but then I saw that the conference price is wayyy above my budget. I'm sure pewpew will be a source of fun for everyone at Europython On Fri, Jun 14, 2019 at 1:48 PM Radomir Dopieralski <sheep@sheep.art.pl> wrote:

We will probably make a lot of it up as we go, but the basic idea is that since everyone will get a PewPew, there would be a lot of people interested in learning how to use it, so we will need workshops for all those people. The problem is, I can only run a workshop for about 20 people at once, and there is a limit on how many times I can do it in a row. So we want some of the people who attend those workshops to either run the next workshop, or help with running them (basically help people with troubleshooting during the workshop). If you are running such a workshop, you would first go through the basic tutorial, that we have prepared, and then either go through one of the games, that I still need to prepare, or go through something else of your own choice -- depending on what interests you. I hope to run this in a sort of an open space format, where we will have time slots, and people will take those slots to run their workshops. I'm sorry if this is a bit fuzzy, I still haven't figured everything myself, and I expect there to be a lot of improvisation, but I can promise it will be fun.
