Message-ID: <571252A8.9000303@europython.eu>

We are happy to announce the schedule for EuroPython 2016 in
Bilbao. The program WG has been working hard trying to fit all the
sessions in the last few weeks.

With over 180 sessions, over 150 speakers, one day for workshops, 5
days of talks, training, keynotes, lightning talks and open spaces,
followed by 2 days of sprints, EuroPython will be one of the most
exciting and vibrant Python events this year:

The schedule is available in table and list format. Please note that
we are still applying changes to the slots and will also add some more
interesting special sessions to it in the coming days.

Early in June we will have a short second Call for Proposals, limited
to hot topics and most recent developments in software and
technology. We will announce details soon.

Many thanks to everyone who submitted proposals. EuroPython wouldn?t
be possible without our speakers.

If you want to join the fun, be sure to get your tickets as soon as
possible, since ticket sales usually start picking up quite a bit
after we announce the schedule.

Subject: [EuroPython-Announce] EuroPython 2016: Extra Hot Topics - Call for
 Proposals
Message-ID: <572482A6.3080008@europython.eu>

The Program work group is happy to announce that there will be an
extra Call for Proposals early in June. This call is limited to hot
topics and most recent developments in software and technology.

Why is there a second call ?
----------------------------

Planning a big conference is a challenge: On one hand people like to
know what will be on our talk schedule to make up their mind and make
travel arrangements early. On the other hand technology is progressing
at the speed of light these days.

So what?s the solution ? Attend anyway - EuroPython is always a great
idea !

Seriously, we have given this some thought and decided to make another
extra Call for Proposals just weeks before the conference.

This CfP is strictly reserved for

 * hot topics
 * emerging technologies
 * brand new developments in software & hardware
 * recent results in research and science

Some suggestions for topics:

 * Exciting new hardware & Internet of Things
 * Robotics
 * Virtual Reality
 * AI & Deep Learning

This call will be open for nine days only:


    *** Saturday June 4th 0:00 to Sunday June 12th 24:00 CEST ***


The program work group will select the most exciting and intriguing
submissions and will notify the winners on short notice.
