Good morning, I am writing to request an open space at this year's PyCon. Specifically, we are hoping to reserve some space between 4 and 6 pm on Saturday, May 17 so that members of the CKAN community might have a chance to gather, share updates and engage in a quick round of lightning talks. If this is something you can accommodate, I'd like to offer the following verbiage for the webpage<https://us.pycon.org/2025/events/open-spaces/>: CKAN Community – Saturday, May 17th; 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM EST Connect with fellow CKAN users, contributors, and newcomers for updates, lightning talks, and casual conversation. Whether you're deep into data or new to CKAN, stop by to share ideas and help shape what’s next. Interested in giving a lightning talk? Email us at pose.ckan@pitt.edu. Please let me know if there anything else I need to do to help secure some space. Thanks very much, Jamaica Jones CKAN POSE Community Manager PhD Candidate, University of Pittsburgh School of Computing and Information
