The downside is that most of the organizers will be on summer
vacation just before the event and thus not be available for
organizing the event.

In April, it is the Python UK conference. If we move the europython
conference
away from country-specific conferences and US-specific conferences, we wi=
ll
soon be unable to hold one since there are more than 12 countries in euro=
pe
and
more than one conference in the US. Python is gaining momentum, more
conferences are organized, all the better. But we should try to make
europython the event that everyone wants to attend rather than to shy awa=
y
from the other events. No one would attend every python event anyway...
except maybe some professionnal globe-trotters :-)

Now if we are to move the conference to the fall, I'd rather have it in
october for everyone to get a chance to be back to work from vacation and
have time do the last minute preparation work.

BTW, something we discussed last week with Nicolas Pettiaux and Denis Fre=
re
was to have the event last three full days and dedicate the first day to
businesses with actual happy users presenting their own use case and
explain why python made it a success.

Any opinion ?

I agree with Nicolas. Also think of students. October is a bad time, sinc=
e
school is going on. The summer is nice, since students are out of school.

On the other hand it is much cheaper to travel in September and October, =
if
you have to fly.

Regards,
Stephan
