Not yet, it will probably be on Monday 29th June, but until we have
done the scheduling we can't be certain. We should know by the end of
the month.

are there tentative dates for acceptance tutorial proposals
and for publishing them so that particularly people interested in 
tutorials can register and plan accordingly?

Real soon now (TM). That is in the next 10 days or so. We have over 70
proposals to review so far, and have reviewed 30.

I'm sorry if no one has replied to you before...

We can only put on a tutorial if some one is willing to give/has proposed one.

Putting the idea up on the wiki would be a good idea: there is still
room I think for one more tutorial.

Better still, we can ask the europython list...

Is anyone out there interested/able to give a suitable SciPy or Numpy tutorial?

Best wishes,

John

I guess that the official answer would be Yes if you are a full time
student, and No if you have a full time job studying part time with
the OU.

As a suggestion: it might be worth mentioning the requirements for what a
"Student" is on the site somewhere.

I couldn't find this when I looked through

Hi,

We have a (very late) decision in our company to come to Europython.  
Now my question is, is there any chance to still submit a talk? I ask  
this because the webpage still allows this and we would like to hold a  
talk if there is still room for it.

Thanks in advance,

We are still reviewing talks, so you're welcome to submit one. However
we cannot guarantee acceptance.

On Tuesday (i.e. tomorrow) we are going to make a tally of the talks we
have and the space we have and make a decision about the 3 of 4 latecomers.
So we will add you to the list and tell you tomorrow night.

If you were interested in presenting a Tutorial, rather than a talk, I
can already tell you that we have plenty of room.

Thanks very much,

Subject: [EuroPython] BoF session
Message-ID: <49EC966D.8080101@treparel.nl>

Hi,

Considering the royally passed deadline for talks, I'm wondering if any 
time will be allotted to planned BoF or similar sessions?  I'm aware of 
the availability of open space and/or lightning talks, but we're sort of 
looking for a little more than that.

I'm asking this because the reason for showing up at EuroPython has just 
recently (i.e. last week) manifested itself.  Giving a talk would have 
been the first option, but again, that deadline seems to have passed 
already.  I did notice the e-mail from this morning, but I'm afraid we 
won't be able to write up an abstract that fast.

Also, considering that we're looking to hold an interactive discussion 
rather than a one-way monologue, a talk may not be the most suitable 
medium anyway.

Still, to give an idea of what I'm talking about, here's a quick synopsis:

     The current functionality of the Python standard library in
     supporting the client side of HTTP communication is rather
     rudimentary (`httplib`, `http.client` in Python3 and `urllib2`).
     Furthermore, we are not aware that any external libraries exist
     that support our use cases.  Via an introductory talk and further
     discussion, we hope to be able to define a roadmap for the future
     of HTTP clients written in Python.  First, we will define our
     requirements, then we will explain the shortcomings of both the
     internal and external solutions, and finally, we hope to create a
     lively discussion about the future of HTTP clients.

Physical space will be allocated, it's up to the BoF participants to
organise themselves on the wiki.

It seems to me that you already have (below) why not just submit it?

Well, we could always make it a panel session.

Submit it! :-)

We can't promise that it will be accepted, but in any case that would
have been true if you'd submitted it earlier.

This year we have plenty of talks well in advance unlike some previous
years, so we will be closing off real soon now: gte it in now.

Hello,

As a belated follow-up to the last article in The Python Papers which 
described EuroPython 2006 at CERN and looked forward to EuroPython 2007 in 
Vilnius, a new article ("EuroPython in Vilnius and Beyond") has just been 
included in the current issue (Vol 4 No 1) describing the last two years' 
conferences and looking forward to EuroPython 2009 in Birmingham, which as 
most of you hopefully know will take place from Sunday 28th June to Saturday 
4th July (including sprints and tutorials).

Take a look at the relevant issue of The Python Papers for details of this new 
article:

http://ojs.pythonpapers.org/index.php/tpp/issue/view/12

Other publicity for the conference can be found on the EuroPython Wiki:

And the starting point for general information about EuroPython can be found 
on the EuroPython Web site:

Hi,

I registered Kyle Ellrott by phone using my Visa card.  A couple of days later I received a call from the bank as to a charge that was for counseling in the UK and the dollar amount was the same as yours.  Anyway, the bank cancelled my credit card for fraud and I was issued a new one.

My concern is that now perhaps you weren't paid.  Please let me know if the order ref. number above is paid or not.  If not, I will need to call you again with a new credit card number.  If I do need to do that could you let me know how the charge will show to the bank.  Does it come up a counseling company?
