I'm sorry if it sounded like that. It was not my
intent whatsoever. We DO need a European pyevent, (and
I'll support it wherever it is!).I was partially
responding to the discussion about whether we should
have 2 such events per annum, and at the same time
just stirring up some thoughts about what each of us
can do regionally to grow the community. However, I
recognise that discussing this issue in the Europython
group may be the wrong place. 

Sorry for any offence caused.
