Interesting story. **

I know Henrique Bastos from Brasil.  He's visited Portland lots.  And Tati.

Anyway, given our Monty Python heritage and Monty Python's Flying Circus,
I think any word that gives the flavor of "circus" or "carnival" is what we
might want, in any vernacular.

PyCirco?

Does that work at all?  Same in Spanish and Portuguese.

PyCircus in English or PyCarnival.  PyCon is more business sounding
though, not suggesting any changes there.

The etymology of the English / Amerish word "geek" is connected:

So it all fits, in other words.  :-D

Hi Facundo, I've been in some of your talks.
