Subject: [EuroPython] Call for proposal dates
Message-ID: <CALaZB_M7Mt+FDup0fZ27QO2426XqgtuQBABONV9TJemP+MxFmQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I was wondering if any dates or timelines have been selected regarding the
call for proposal (talks, tutorials, poster session), more specifically
proposal deadlines.

If not, do you have an ETA on when you are planning to make the
announcement?

Thanks!
JP

Hi Jean-Philippe,

we don't have dates or timelines for the CfP yet, but it's
probably a good idea to start preparing your talk proposal in
the next few weeks :-)

Thanks,

Message-ID: <54EF38D0.5000406@europython.eu>

The EuroPython Workgroups are busy preparing the launch of the
website. Just launched in mid-January, all workgroups (WGs) are fully
under steam by now, working hard to make EuroPython 2015 a fabulous
event.

    http://ep2015.europython.eu/


Community building the conference
---------------------------------

The *On-site Team WG* is doing a wonderful job getting us the best
possible deals in Bilbao, the *Web WG* is knee deep into code and
docker containers setting up the website, the *Marketing & Design WG*
working with the designers to create wonderful logos and brochures,
the *Program WG* contacting keynote speakers and creating the call for
proposals, the *Finance WG* building the budget and making sure the
conference stays affordable for everyone, the *Support WG* setting up
the online help desk to answer your questions, the *Communications WG*
preparing to create a constant stream of exciting news updates, the
*Administration WG* is managing the many accounts, contracts and
services needed to run the organization.

The *Financial Aid WG* and *Media WG* are preparing to start their
part of the conference organization later in March.

    http://www.europython-society.org/workgroups

The WGs are all staffed with members from the ACPySS on-site team, the
EuroPython Society and volunteers from the EuroPython community to
drive the organization forward and we?re getting a lot done in a very
short time frame.


More help needed
----------------

We are very happy with the help we are getting from the community, but
there still is a lot more to be done. If you want to help us build a
great EuroPython conference, please consider joining one of the above
workgroups:
