Dear Python Colleague:
The PyCon Program Committee is happy to announce that
the opening keynote speech, at 9:30 am on Wednesday
March 23 will be:
Python on the .NET Platform, by

languages like Python.
I look forward to hearing what Jim has to say, and
hope that you will join me and the rest of the Python
community at PyCon DC 2005, at George Washington
University from March 23-25, with a four-day sprint
starting on Saturday March 19.
Early bird registration rates are still available for

Dear Python Colleague:
You will be happy to know that the PyCon Program
Committee, after lengthy deliberations, has now
finalized the program for PyCon DC 2005. I can tell
you that the decision-making was very difficult, as
the standard of submissions was even higher than
last year.
You can see the preliminary program at
http://www.python.org/pycon/2005/schedule.html
and it's obvious that this year's PyCon is going
to be even fuller than the last.
On innovation is that there will be …
[View More]activities of
a more social nature on the Wednesday (and perhaps
the Thursday) evening, as well as keynote speeches
from Guido and two other luminaries.
Remember that the early bird registration rates end
in just over a week, so hurry on down to
http://www.python.org/pycon/2005/register.html
to be sure of your place in what will surely be the
premier Python event of the year.
As always, I would appreciate your help in getting
the word out. Please forward this message to your
favorite mailing lists and newsgroups to make sure
that everyone has a chance to join in the fun!
regards
Steve Holden
