[python-events] PyCon Canada

[Marc-Andre Lemburg]

Hi Bryan,

I can try to reach out to some folks I know to perhaps get a contact going.

If nothing else works, I suppose we'd have to assume that the 2019 PyCon 
CA team is no longer interested in running conferences. You could then 
have to try to setup a new edition of the conference and put together a 
new team.

This typically works by gathering a small group of people from the 
national Python community, getting everyone behind the idea and then 
start getting the organization ramped up.

One of the things you'd have to do is contact the PSF Trademark 
Committee to get approval for using the PyCon name. Getting access to 
the pycon.ca domain will be challenging, but we could help you out with 
the ca.pycon.org sub-domain (I am on the TM committee).

Thanks,
