up / lost]

The Python UK conference is taking place on Friday and Saturday 16th
and 17th of April, as part of the ACCU Spring Conference at the
Randolph Hotel in the centre of Oxford.  The impressive list of
speakers includes David Ascher, Alex Martelli, Armin Rigo of Psyco and
PyPy fame, Duncan Booth, Chris Withers, and core CPython and Jython
developers Michael Hudson and Samuele Pedroni.  The Python conference
follows a 2-day Open Source event with well-known open-source leader
and Pythonista Eric Raymond, co-founder of Zope corp Paul Everitt, and
a host of other interesting speakers.

Though all the official speakers are invited, there will be
considerable space during breaks and after hours for Python
mini-talks, Birds of a Feather meetings and sprints (possibly
including a PyPy sprint).

There are also very reasonable sponsorship options (starting from £200
for a lunchtime stand and talk) for Python companies wishing to
promote themselves; see the 'sponsorship' page of the site for
details.
