Message-ID: Things have been very busy here at PyCon Australia 2012 headquarters -- we've been busy putting the finishing touches on what we hope will be an amazing conference for Python programmers from around Australia and beyond. === T-shirt registration deadline: Tuesday 31 July. === Of course, a conference is nothing without people attending, and there's still plenty of opportunity to join in the fun. Registrations for the conference will remain open until the week of the conference, or until we sell out; but if you want one of our fantastic conference t-shirts, you'll need to have your registration finalised on Tuesday, 31 July. Prices for reigstrations start at $44 for students, and $198 for individuals. You can register at http://2012.pycon-au.org/register/prices === More Events! === For those of you attending the conference, you'll be pleased to know that we've confirmed a few more of our events for the conference. The annual PyLadies breakfast is happening on the Saturday, before conference festivities start, at Wrest Point's Pier One waterfront restaurant. This event is open to all female delegates to the conference, and is being sponsored by our good friends at Google Australia. We've also finalised details of our conference dinner -- we'll be sharing details of these with you next week, but needless to say, we're very excited about it, and can't wait to share this with you. === About PyCon Australia === PyCon Australia is the national conference for the Python Programming Community.
