[Inpycon] Announcement : Talk Selections for Pycon India 2011

[Dhananjay Nene]

It is my pleasure to announce the selected talks and tutorials for Pycon
India 2011. I am pleased that the selected talks and tutorials reflect a set
of interesting and diverse topics on Python. We had a large number of
submissions and it is unfortunate that we had to decline the ability to host
many other talks / tutorials which were also likely to be quite interesting.
The numbers referred to are the same as the numbers on the Pycon India 2011
talks page ie. http://in.pycon.org/2011/talks . We hope to update that page
soon (hopefully some time later today).

The talks page should be updated soon on the matter (it is not yet updated).


In addition to these we have shortlisted a few reserve talks in case any of
the existing talk submitter would need to withdraw for any reason
whatsoever. The submitters of these talks have been informed accordingly.

Also due to unavailability of contact information (which is purely an
internal communication issue), I have been unable to inform 4 submitters yet
(one of them having submitted a talk which has been selected). I intend to
rectify it later today as soon as I can. However, after careful thought, I
considered it best not to hold up the selected talk announcement on that
count. Preferably this shortcoming should've been avoided.

Congratulations to all the submitters to the talks that have been selected.
We look forward to submissions from all those who submitted this year and
didn't in 2012. And we also look forward to meeting all the Python
enthusiasts at Pune at Pycon India 2011.

May I remind you to register at http://in.pycon.org/2011/register if you
haven't already done so? Note that the special early bird rate is active
only for a few more days (ie. until July 31st).
