Hi I'm an enthusiastic novice programmer who is attending his first pycon. In the interests of immersing myself and getting the most out of the conference, I've signed up to work as a volunteer. I work in a customer facing job day to day and like helping people, so I signed up for the Welcome to Pycon! Desk on Sunday the 29th. My question is: am I going to be in over my head as a first-time pycon attendee? Can you guys send me an information packet to study so I can have answers to the most common questions? Thanks!
