Euroscipy 2012 is the annual European conference for scientists using the       
Python language. It will be held August 23-27 2012 in Brussels,                 
Belgium.                                                                        
                    
Our program has been online for a few weeks now: we're very excited to          
have a great selection of tutorials, as well as talks and poster                
presentations. During the two days of tutorials (August 23 and 24), it          
will possible to attend either the introduction track, or the advanced          
track, or to combine both tracks (see                                           
http://www.euroscipy.org/track/6538?tab=tracktalkslist and                      
http://www.euroscipy.org/track/6539?tab=tracktalkslist). As for the             
highlights of the two days of conference (August 25 and 26), we are very        
happy to have David Beazley (http://www.dabeaz.com) and Eric Jones              
(http://www.enthought.com/company/support-team.php) as our keynote              
speakers. The list of talks is available on                                     
http://www.euroscipy.org/track/6540?tab=tracktalkslist, with subjects           
ranging from extension programming to machine learning, or cellular             
biology. We're looking forward to exciting discussions during the talk          
sessions or around the posters, as happened during the previous editions        
of Euroscipy! Sprints may be organized at the conference venue during           
the days following the conference, from Monday 27th on. Since there is a        
limited number of rooms booked for the sprints, please contact the              
organizers by July 22 if you intend to organize one. Two sprints are            
already planned by the scikit-learn and the scikits-image teams.      

The EuroSciPy 2012 conference will feature a best talk, a best poster and       
a jury award. All conference participants will be given the opportunity         
to cast a vote for the best talk and best poster awards while the jury          
award is selected by the members of the program committee. Each                 
prize consists of a Commercial Use license for Wing IDE Professional,           
an integrated development environment designed specifically for Python          
programmers. The licenses are generously donated by Wingware.
