[CentralOH] PyOhio 2011 Call For Proposals (we NEED you!)

[Eric Floehr]

PyOhio 2011, the fourth annual Python programming conference for Ohio and
the surrounding region, will take place Saturday-Sunday, July 30-31, 2011 at
the Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio. A variety of activities are
planned, including tutorials, scheduled talks, Lightning Talks, Open Spaces
and Sprints.

PyOhio invites all interested people to submit proposals for scheduled
talks, tutorials, and panels. All topics of interest to Python programmers
will be considered. Standard presentation slots will be 40 minutes plus a 10
minute question-and-answer period.

PyOhio is a great venue to get word out about your favorite Python library
and how you use it, talk about how Python is used in your company, or
practice your speaking in front of a welcoming audience.

PyOhio is especially interested in hosting a Beginner’s Track for those new
to Python or new to programming in general. If your proposal would be
suitable for inclusion in a Beginner’s Track, please indicate so. Organizers
will work with speakers and instructors in the Beginner’s Track to help them
coordinate their talks/tutorials into a smooth, coherent learning curve for
new Python users.

To ensure that you provide all necessary information, please use the
submission template provided below. If organizing a panel, please confirm
all panelists’ intention to participate before submitting your proposal.


PyOhio may record presentations for later release over the web. Presenters
will need to sign a release of recording rights to PyOhio; see
http://wiki.python.org/moin/PyOhio/RecordingRelease

All proposals should be emailed to cfp at pyohio.org for review. Please submit
proposals by Friday, June 3, 2011. Accepted speakers will be notified by
June 17.
