I have a feeling that this is something broader and we would have to get 
permission from PSF - quite possibly there are members from India in PSF. We 
already have permission to use the pycon domain and brand, so there is no 
obstacle to naming it pycon India. It is also possible that some big people in 
the python world from India are not in the loop here - this might cause some 
embarassment later. Anyway, it is a good thing to keep PSF in the loop 
regardless of what name we are going to use.
