From mal at europython.eu Mon Feb 15 03:28:02 2016 From: mal at europython.eu (M.-A. Lemburg) Date: Mon, 15 Feb 2016 09:28:02 +0100 Subject: [EuroPython-Announce] EuroPython 2016: Sending out the first gravitational waves Message-ID: <56C18C12.7010506@europython.eu> We are pleased to announce the launch of our all new EuroPython 2016 website. Over the last few weeks, we have been busy talking to sponsors and getting the website prepared for the launch. You may have heard about the recent direct observation of gravitational waves by the LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory). What you may not know is that Python helped in analyzing the data, so we now have two things to celebrate: 1. Python?s use in this phenomenal direct proof of Einstein?s prediction and 2. the launch of our 2016 edition of the EuroPython conference. So here it is: *** https://ep2016.europython.eu/ *** July 17 - 24 2016 Many thanks go to our launch sponsors who have signed up early to give us that extra boost in motivation to get the conference and it?s website set up. Meet our Launch Sponsors ------------------------ * Bilbao Ekintza * Intel * UPV/EHU * Udemy * Python Software Foundation * Blue Yonder * Jet Brains * Numberly * Flying Circus * Limejump * RedHat * Vzzual.com * Django-CMS * Riverbank PS: We?d like to thank the EuroPython Web WG for the web site improvements and our friends at Python Italia for making their code available.

EuroPython is a community conference and we are eager to hear about your experience. Please also forward this Call for Proposals to anyone that you feel may be interested. *** https://ep2016.europython.eu/en/call-for-proposals/ *** Submissions will be open until Sunday, March 6, 23:59:59 CET For full details, please see the above CFP page. We have many exciting things waiting for you: * a PyData satellite event * new formats (panels, interactive sessions) * tracks to focus on more specific domains, including a revival of the EuroPython Business Track * speaker discounts for more than just talks and trainings Please note that we are using a shorter CFP period of just 2.5 weeks this year, since we want to have the list of talks published sooner than last year.
