Call for Proposals: PyCon AU 2014 in Brisbane

[PyCon AU]

PyCon Australia 2014 is pleased to announce that its Call for
Proposals is now open!

The conference this year will be held on Saturday 2 and Sunday 3 August
2014 in Brisbane. We'll also be featuring a day of miniconfs
on Friday 1 August.

The deadline for proposal submission is Friday April 25, 2014, and more
information can be found at http://pycon-au.org/cfp

PyCon Australia attracts professional developers from all walks of
life, including industry, government, and science, as well as
enthusiast and student developers. We're looking for proposals for
presentations and tutorials on any aspect of Python programming, at
all skill levels from novice to advanced.

Presentation subjects may range from reports on open source, academic
or commercial projects; or even tutorials and case studies. If a
presentation is interesting and useful to the Python community, it
will be considered for inclusion in the program.

We're especially interested in short presentations that will teach
conference-goers something new and useful. Can you show attendees how
to use a module? Explore a Python language feature? Package an
application?

Proposals about the Django web framework are very strongly encouraged,
and will also be considered for inclusion in DjangoCon AU, to be held
on Friday 1 August.

We welcome first-time speakers; we are a community conference and we
are eager to hear about your experience. If you have friends or
colleagues who have something valuable to contribute, twist their arms
to tell us about it! Please also forward this Call for Proposals to
anyone that you feel may be interested.
