Subject: [EuroPython-announce] EuroPython 2008: Call for Participation
	Reminder
Message-ID: <200805130021.01343.paul@boddie.org.uk>

We?re twelve days into May and there are now only ten days left until the 
deadline for submitting talk proposals (and suggesting activities) for 
EuroPython 2008! If you have something to show off that might interest the 
Python community, now is the time to start putting together a proposal for a 
talk. Remember that you don?t need to have the talk ready now - just a 
reasonable idea of what you?ll be presenting.

Take a look at the Call for Participation on the EuroPython Web site for 
details:

http://www.europython.org/community/CallForParticipation

And remember that the EuroPython organisers and community are always ready to 
answer any questions about talks and other matters on the mailing lists:

We look forward to seeing your proposals!

Subject: [EuroPython-announce] Extension of the Talk Submissions Period for
	EuroPython 2008
Message-ID: <200805242109.10169.paul@boddie.org.uk>

The original deadline for submitting talk proposals for EuroPython 2008 passed 
on Thursday, and so far we've had quite a few submissions. We would, however, 
like to see a few more! So, we have now decided to give all potential 
submitters some more time to put together proposals and send them in for 
consideration. As always, the EuroPython organisers realise that the 
deadlines we've set aren't always compatible with everyone's personal 
schedule.

What this means is that anyone who had considered making a talk proposal but 
then found themselves short of time before last Thursday can now aim for the 
new deadline of Monday 2nd June - there's even a weekend before the deadline 
for anyone needing "quiet time" to sketch out their proposal! Remember that 
we're only looking for proposals at this point, not the entire talk or 
materials, although we obviously expect those things to be ready for the 
conference. ;-)

Take a look at the Call for Participation for all the details:

We look forward to seeing your proposals!
