EuroPython 2018: Getting ready

[M.-A. Lemburg]

We are excited to announce the launch of the EuroPython 2018 website:


		  * https://ep2018.europython.eu/ *


The EuroPython conference will take place in sunny Edinburgh,
Scotland, this year, from July 23-29 2018.

It’s a great time of year to visit Edinburgh with 16 hours of
daylight, and the festival season in full flow, so come and join
us. This is just one week before the famous Edinburgh Fringe Festival
and the Turing Festival, so you can extend your stay a little longer
in Edinburgh, or head for the Highlands to enjoy the amazing mountains
and lochs.
