Please Help Publicize PyCon

[mdipierro]

There is huge difference between what Steve is asking and spam.

Spam is "Unsolicited e-mail, often of a commercial nature, sent
indiscriminately to multiple mailing lists, individuals, or
newsgroups".

Steve is asking us help him to identify communities that we may be
part of and that we believe may be interested in the PyCon conference
and inform them.

Not every communication on the internet is spam.
