Hello, I'm interested in volunteering at PyCon this year. What positions are open? I'm a Django development intern with past experience in volunteer management and event planning. I'd be interested in helping out wherever needed. I live in Portland and will be available for the whole conference. Thanks, Emily

Open Source Django Volunteer App
by Hannes Hapke 19 Jan '16

19 Jan '16

Hi Yarko, hi Rami, My name is Hannes and I am volunteering for the PyCon poster committee. I wanted to introduce to you Chris Freeman (in CC) who is the author of an open source volunteer app (fully written in Django). Chris' app streamlines the volunteer coordination (registration, shift selection, announcements, etc.). The app is free and was field-tested in various conferences (e.g. multiple years of Open Source Bridge, local Python conference PyDX, and soon used by the TechNW conference). I noticed that the volunteer coordination last year was mostly based on spreadsheets, so maybe you can give Chris' open source project a try. He is also an active member of the local Python group and could provide tech support during the conference or with the app deployment. Maybe the community around this amazing open source project could grow if more people could see the app in action at PyCon. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to Chris ( Chris.freeman.pdx(a)gmail.com). See you at PyCon in Portland, Hannes --- Hannes Hapke p: +1-503-425-9586 t: @hanneshapke w: hanneshapke.github.io For secure messages, please use this pgp key: http://bit.ly/1EJhUxJ
