Unable to attend PyCon
by Stacie Seaman 26 May '16

26 May '16

Hello, I signed up for 3 sessions as either a Runner or a Chair but I won't be able to make it to PyCon this year. We were driving from Colorado when my husband began experiencing severe abdominal pain. I took him to the Emergency Department and he had an appendectomy this morning. He will have to stay in Brigham City Community Hospital for one or two nights and then we'll travel home when he is able. I'm sorry I won't be able to help - I was looking forward to it.

In order to get you prepared for onsite, I am including the below information. - Location of the Green Room/Speaker Ready Room: C122 (first level of the Oregon Convention Center). - Link to floor plan showing location (marked with blue star): https://www.dropbox.com/s/0hq5oh5lydhrkm7/green_room.png?dl=0 - It will be operational May 30 - June 1 and it will be setup on May 29th. - You are welcome to be there at any point throughout the conference - If you are a first-time session runner/chair, please arrive 30 minutes before the session you signed up for so you can go through a quick training. If you have done this before, 15 minutes prior will suffice. - Schedule: https://us.pycon.org/2016/schedule/sessions/ - Those that signed up to be of general help in the green room, your role will be to make sure operations are running smoothly and to step in for any no-shows or for sessions no one signed up for. - PyCon Code of Conduct & procedural instructions just in case you will need it: https://us.pycon.org/2016/about/code-of-conduct/ *If you have any questions, please email pycon-greenroom(a)python.org <pycon-greenroom(a)python.org>.* David Wolever and Julia Duimovich are the staffers in the green room and they will be able to assist you via email and/or onsite. Please do not email me directly as I am about to get on a flight to Portland :) Most importantly: Thank you so much for volunteering at PyCon. The time you put in helps our attendees/speakers have a great experience at the conference. We truly appreciate you taking the time to make PyCon 2016 the best PyCon yet!

Fwd: Some final logistical bits for PyCon 2016
by Ewa Jodlowska 24 May '16

24 May '16

Hi David and Julia, FYI - Brandon has reached out to each keynoters and asked them to meet him in room C122 prior to their talk. Just wanting to make sure you both are aware of the arrangements. See email below. Best regards, Ewa Director of Operations Python Software Foundation Cell: 415-319-5237 ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Brandon Rhodes <pycon.brandon(a)gmail.com> Date: Tue, May 24, 2016 at 11:25 AM Subject: Some final logistical bits for PyCon 2016 To: Cris Ewing <cris(a)crisewing.com> Cc: Ewa Jodlowska <ewa(a)python.org> Good morning, Cris — I can hardly believe it, but PyCon 2016 is almost upon us! Here are a few notes regarding logistics: - Both Ewa and I are arriving in Portland within the next day or two, and will be available to help you with any snags. If you need anything during your stay, please do not hesitate to text or call either me (404-704-6376) or Ewa (415-319-5237). - As early as Friday afternoon you can visit our registration desk at the Oregon Convention Center to claim your badge and *pick up your free transit pass* that works on Portland’s light rail, commuter rail, buses, and streetcars! Registration is open 2pm–6pm Friday and 7am–6pm on Saturday and Sunday and the main conference days. - On the big morning, let’s plan to *meet in the Green Room (C122) at 8:40am Wednesday* — that should give us enough time to test our laptops with a projector before we are escorted over to the plenary session. - Please feel free to visit the Green Room (C122) as often as you want during the conference! As a speaker, you are welcome to any refreshments there, and are welcome to use the room to get work done. - Our CART transcription service has a request. Do you have any draft notes or slides that we could send them today, so your transcriber can be learning any specialized vocabulary words ahead of time? It would reduce the chance of a rare or technical word appearing mangled on the live transcription screen as you talk. See you in Portland! -- Brandon Rhodes PyCon 2016 Conference Chair pycon.brandon(a)gmail.com
