I've been recommending people use new instances each year, but I haven't
actually tried just using one.

btw, I've been meaning to submit PRs for improved docs but it is one of
those tasks I fall behind on.

Currently I have some very spare docs in the pydata conference repo. (I've
also got a fab file for deploying it.)

http://pydata-conference-management.readthedocs.org/en/latest/index.html
https://github.com/pydata/conf_site/blob/master/fabfile.py

I notice Carl has some notes in the pyohio repo on the talk review process
https://github.com/pyohio/Conference-Documentation/tree/master/workflows-for-talk-submissions

And I have a record in reverse chronological order from when I was learning
symposion to help with SciPy 2014. (For 2015 they used a vendor for doing
the conference.)
