I've been in touch with Raymond Hettinger[1] and he's agreed to come down for the conference as our keynote speaker. Raymond is a core contributor to Python, author of tons of awesome recipes on Active State recipes, author of the itertools module and lots of other niceties. We need to discuss details like payment etc. and one person in Pune needs to make sure of things like accomodation and transport. I'll open a private mail thread with Sree and the others involved in the financial stuff to discuss those aspects.

I agree not much has been happening lately, specifically in terms of seeking sponsorships from Pune and the track 3 / tutorial track I believe this would be a good time to get it going, as for event logistics issues as well.

The way the other PyCons I've seen do it is to solicit talks the usual way but to treat tutorials as a category (longer duration, separate day) and then to schedule the good ones out of what is received. Either way is fine but we're horribly late with everything and unless a decision is taken quickly and acted upon, we'll end up with nothing. -- ~noufal http://nibrahim.net.in Gentlemen, I want you to know that I am not always right, but I am never wrong. -Samuel Goldwyn From anandology at gmail.com Fri Jun 24 14:45:15 2011 From: anandology at gmail.com (Anand Chitipothu) Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2011 18:15:15 +0530 Subject: [Inpycon] Sponsorship confirmations In-Reply-To: References: <1308807974.2007.170.camel@localhost> <87oc1o7lnn.fsf@sanitarium.localdomain> <89C5A8C3-373D-408D-8B0A-069EE58B0B9D@holdenweb.com> <1308917818.2007.268.camel@localhost> Message-ID: >> if it does not involve too much could you remove the empty sponsorships >> from the site - looks ugly. > > +1.

While it is unlikely to be an issue, I think decorum should dictate we go back to the sponsors and inform them about our intent to add to the sponsorship tiers. In the meanwhile I suggest the following : a. Decide on the new additional sponsorship tiers we want to introduce and the corresponding fees / benefits (I am perfectly fine with the associate sponsors with the benefit being a logo on the website). Let us decide if we want to consider any other slots (just thinking out of my hat here as a hypothetical suggestion - but say a Lunch sponsorships for each days). Whatever it is lets freeze that (due to point b. below) b. Communicate back with the committed sponsors of our intent to expand the sponsorship tiers, and review if there are any comments / objections. While unllkely to be an issue, I do think it would be appropriate to go through this step. c. Lets keep up the pressure to first finish the existing slots, before announcing an opening of new slots post completion of step b.

From dhananjay.nene at gmail.com Sat Jun 25 10:34:29 2011 From: dhananjay.nene at gmail.com (Dhananjay Nene) Date: Sat, 25 Jun 2011 14:04:29 +0530 Subject: [Inpycon] Discussions on 21st June Message-ID: This is to document the discussions as held the night of 21st June between the Pune folks working actively on #inpycon. Unfortunately I had to go to the airport almost immdtly afterwards so its been some time and I am using my rather poor memory. Others in the discussion feel free to append or amend as appropriate. We started off with the set of specific items Noufal had referred to in his mail : 1. To get aggressive with sponsors This is definitely important at the moment, and it was decided to a) Aggressively seek sponsors the week of 26th (Lead: Dhananjay. Navin and others supporting with specific leads into pune companies). I also agreed to touch base with volunteers from other cities to assess and coordinate sponsorship promotion in the other cities as well. (This should be happening the coming week) 2. To advertise the CFP and chase/get python programmers in India to come present high quality stuff. Ramki to get in touch with a number of other folks to specially promote this (eg. Bhaskaracharya pratishthan is one I recollect). Probably more was discussed, but I don't recollect it quite well. 3. Create a buzz (twitter, facebook etc.) Navin to help it get kickstarted. It was also discussed that perhaps one of the upcoming techweekend sessions could be dedicated to python to further increase the local buzz and we could support those sessions. Harshad Oak also would be helping with the local offline media interfacing, though we were a little unclear how to market it to that segment. BG would also be supporting in terms of interacting with some other blogs as well. There was also a discussion of distributing python content dvds based on some of the earlier gnunify sessions within the local community through events such as techweekend and other local fora. 4. Arrange wifi (I sent an email about this earlier) Harshad Gune (he's been teaching at Symbiosis for the last 14 years so is reasonably clued into that environment). He suggested that there is a good availability of 5 Mbps from aircel at the venue. There was a question whether one needs a larger number of access points and whether we would need higher bandwidth given the large number of people. Unresolved. BG to continue with the same in coordination with Harshad Gune for the Wifi infrastructure 5. Design and decide on the publicity materials (brochures etc.) I wish I remember more about what exactly transpired here - someone else from the discussion kindly chip in. We did discuss two more points. 6. Venue and Logistics Planning : While not immediately important in terms of imminent action, it was important to start planning and listing all the tasks that we would need to track. We also need to start creating the local volunteer base for the conference. We could start the same with eliciting volunteers (from punepycon and other sources). Navin / Harshad G could get started off along these lines. 7. Tutorial Track : I mentioned that we have about 6 volunteers now (3 being folks I have pinged and have responded positively, 1 being self, 1 being Noufal, and 1 being someone BG would help appoint) and that we would need a few more if we have to structure a full set of sessions over three days. We need to get the overall structure decided so that people can start creating the appropriate content. This is something that I shall also continue to focus on in addition to sponsorships.
