[python-advocacy] SD West

[Alvin Wang]

My goal for 2007 depends on whether I can land Pycon.  I am preparing a bid
for the San Francisco Bay Area.

I have to discuss this with the Pycon organizers but media usually gets free
registration for conferences.  I don't currently see this on Pycon
registration.  I know a few people at Cnet which is based in SF.  There are
several computer magazines based here.

I also have several goals in terms of tracks and attendees.  I would like to
have over 1000 attendees.  Mostly from the Bay Area since that is easier.  I
want to have an ISP track or at least talks.  How to securely host Python?
How to admin a system using Python?  Etc.  There are a ton of ISPs in the
Bay Area.  They mainly use Php and Java.

I am also mulling the idea of starting a python sig in SdForum.  There is a
Ruby sig there.  SdForum is the largest programmer user group in Silicon
Valley.  BayPiggies is a fine group but does not interact with the
mainstream much.
