Python by the Sea

Hi all, I'd like to let you know about a small event I'm staging from 23-25 September https://python-by-the-sea.org/ It's a Python unconference, so the topics are decided by those attending, at the start of event. The venue maxes out at 40, but I'll probably limit numbers to about 30 to maximise comfort - this is not primarily a money-making enterprise, but an opportunity to make new friends in the Python community and perhaps meet old ones. Should there be a financial surplus I'll be donating it to the family of Michael Foord, a long-term Python contributor who died this year, and whom I'm sure was known to many of you. Although Michael will be sadly missed, I'm already looking forward to seeing others from the Python world that I haven't met for at least two years. You can get a 12% discount on tickets until 24 August, when Early Bird sales end and the price goes up, by following this link: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1468376185699/?discount=python_uk_list Feel free to email me at steve(a)holdenweb.com with any questions, suggestions or comments. Kind regards Steve -- Kind regards Steve Python by the Sea, a friendly little unconference: https://python-by-the-sea.org Author, Python in a Nutshell: https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/python-in-a/9781098113544/
