I wanted to add the following events to the pycon.org and python.org
calendars.

I run NYC Python (www.nycpython.org) which is turning out to be one of
the most active Python user group in the world! The level of energy and
enthusiasm in NYC for Python is amazing!

We have office hours every Tuesday, study groups every Saturday and
Sunday, and we have two "headline" events (workshops/nights of talk for
~100 people) every other Thursday.

I'd like to list two of the upcoming, confirmed NYC Python "headline"
events for February.

name:      NYC Python PyData London Warm-up
type:      user group, night of talks
focus:     talks all explicitly Python-related
size:      ~200 people
url:       http://www.meetup.com/nycpython/events/159021512/
location:  AppNexus Auditorium, 4th Fl, 28 W 23rd St, NY, NY, 10010
date/time: Thursday, February 6, 2014, 6:30 PM - 9:30 PM

name:      NYC Python Project Night
type:      user group, workshop
focus:     projects all explicitly use Python (Flask, Django, &c.)

date/time: Thursday, February 20, 2014, 6:30 PM - 9:30 PM

I would also like to add a one-day, all-day conference that I am running
independently of NYC Python on 14-Mar.

The keynote will be given by Kirat Singh, the formerly the head of
technology behind the JP Morgan Athena and Bank of America Quartz
projects (each ~10 million LoC, ~4,000 programmer, cross-business-unit
pure-Python systems.)

name:      Conference "for Python Quants"
