Thanks to Peter and Nicholas for sorting out my PyCon proposal!

This means I will be at PyCon on the Friday demoing various micro:bit add-ons so if there are any micro:bit Pythoners there that day please come over and say "hello!"

Hi Nevil,

I'm the chair of PyCon UK this year, and I'm really sorry that there's been a lack of communication here.

I'll look into this today.

Thanks for being understanding,

Peter.

Hi,


In June I put forward a proposal to demonstrate my prototype "zbit:connect" boards for the BBC micro:bit on the Friday at this years PyCon UK. At the time I got an email acknowledging receipt of the proposal but since then I've not heard anything. Last week I sent another email but I've still not heard anything. Does anyone know who else I could contact?


The "zbit:connect" boards make it easier to attach more sophisticated electronics to the micro:bit such as boards using the I2C and/or SPI busses and the only one of the 4 main micro:bit languages which supports driving these busses is micro python, hence it would be good to demonstrate them at PyCon UK to showcase some of the things micro python can do! I was looking to have space for a couple of tables for people to drop by during the day for a demo.


Cheers,


Nevil
