Register early, especially if you'd like to attend a tutorial or
three, as tutorials fill up early. And yes, you heard that correctly

evening. There are 29 great tutorials to choose from. More about the
tutorials soon, but for now, you can check out the descriptions
yourself here: http://us.pycon.org/2008/tutorials/schedule/
The talk schedule is also up (in a preliminary form), although some
changes are expected: http://us.pycon.org/2008/conference/schedule/

Thanks to the PyCon organizers for developing the software, providing
the website content, testing & debugging. PyCon is a community
conference, of, by, and for the Python community. There is still
much to do, and you can help!
