[PyCon-Organizers] PyCon 2009 (US) - Call for tutorials Extended to 11/3

[Douglas Napoleone]

We should get an announcement out on the blog:
http://pycon.blogspot.com/

and note that the deadline is approaching for both talks and tutorials.

For some reason blogger does not like my google account, so I cant
seem to do it :-(
