Topics for PyCon DC 2003. = Latest Information =
Line 4: Line 4:
PyCon DC 2003 is not going to be an elitist conference. It needs your help to ensure that there is something for everybody? What can you do? Well, firstly you can contribute your ideas on this very page. It's easy to edit Wiki content, so get to it! The more contributors we have, the mroe relevant and interesting PyCon DC 2003 will become. A few topics are listed below to get you started, but you should feel free to add more if you believe the PythonCommunities will benefit from having them covered at this, and future, conferences. See ["PyConDC2005"] for more about the upcoming conference.

=== Sprints === We are looking for one or more keynote speakers with something of interest and value to say to the Python community.
Line 8: Line 8:
The sprints are intended to benefit the Python core, as well as encouraging more developers to take part in Python's development. They might also be a good place to see ExtremeProgramming or other AgileDevelopment techniques in action. What would you like to see done, or at least attempted? See the SteveHolden page for the chairman's current thoughts on organization and content.

=== Lighteniing Talks === = Previous conferences: =
Line 12: Line 12:
At IPC 10 the Developer Day has many short talks on diverse topics. If you can't produce a full-blown paper, either offer your own talk (as short as five minutes is acceptable) to distil a part of your hard-won experience and save others the learning time you put in. Or just say what you'd like someone else to give a lightening talk on.  * ["PyConDC2004"]

=== Volunteers === = Notes from the gnome: =
Line 16: Line 17:
The absence of professional organizers is the main way to keep the cost of PyCon down, but this means we're relying on YOU to help. Volunteer efforts don't need to be all-embracing -- if we can share the load then no one individual needs to suffer a heart attack to make things happen. This section will detail areas where help is needed, and you are encouraged to put your name down to offer assistance. Make it ''your'' conference. Make it ''our'' conference. This is a commmunity effort, and it needs people to ''''get involved''''. I've moved the pages linked from ["PyConDC2004"] and ["PyConDC2003"] (at least, those that are specific to them) to subpages. Doing the same for any pages created for ["PyConDC2005"] would save some cleaning next year. -- JohannesGijsbers

=== Progress Reports === ''Many thanks for the gnoming! I presume you mean that rather than having "PyConSpeakers" we should have "PyCon2005Speakers" directly? That's a good idea. What should we then use the "Pure PyCon" (with no year in their names) pages for? - SH''
Line 20: Line 21:
There are many areas of Python development where it's hard to stay in touch with what's going on. What would you like to see reports about? Two areas that have already been mentioned are Jython/JPython and the PythonBusinessForum. What else is of burning interest? Who is going to give these reports. Sign up here and help to make PyCon ''relevant'' and ''engaging''. You don't need to be a professional speaker to help other Pythonistas out with a little informatioppn. Information that will still be relevant for the next year. That would mean there would be no "PyConSpeakers" page, but the PyConHelpers page could be useful over multiple years. Oh, and I think using subpages ("PyConDC2005/Speakers") would be better than "PyCon2005Speakers". -- JohannesGijsbers
Line 22: Line 23:
=== Batteries to be Included ===

There seems to be some interest in building Python distributions that combine the core with various third-party libraries. ActiveState is probably the model here, packaging the Python core with Mark Hammond's win32all extensions and various others. How can this bve dome in ways that make more people's lives easier and at the same time assist the conference theme of "''''Popularizing Python''''"?
''Fine, that makes a lot of sense. That's what we'll do. Thanks again! - SH''
