Os discursos de abertura da confer?ncia EuroPython 2006 ser?o pronunciados por Guido van Rossum e por Alan Kay, Ph.D, iniciador da t?cnica de programa??o orientada para objetos e pioneiro da computa??o gr?fica. O programa da confer?ncia consiste de tr?s dias de palestras em oito pistas, incluindo uma sobre desenvolvimento ?gil de software, uma pista sobre neg?cios, uma sobre did?tica, uma sobre jogos, uma pista expandida tratando de web frameworks, e muito mais. Seguindo o sucesso dos anos anteriores, os organizadores tamb?m prev?em pistas de micro-palestras com temas livres e espont?neos ("lightning talks"), corridas curtas de desenvolvimento coletivo de produtos ("sprints") e reuni?es de grupos com interesses comuns ("birds-of-a-feather") - "lightnig talks", "sprints" e "birds-of-a-feather" s?o tr?s tipos de acontecimentos muito populares das confer?ncias EuroPython, uma vez que eles d?o a oportunide de discuss?es vivas e da forma??o de redes sociais entre os participantes.

I've asked all the track chairs to work out which talks we're going to accept and reject and timetable those they are sure about by Monday night, so we should have a complete, albeit draft, timetable by Tuesday lunchtime (bits should appear before then, depending on how much time the various track chairs have over the weekend). We gonna have some really interesting talks! Thanks to all the track chairs for doing such a great job!

I found out on the map that there actually is a proper camping space with facilities and fees for rvs, tents and such, but it's quite far, on the lake, on the other side of Geneva, some 40 kms away... I would be equally happy to find something like a park, or a quiet parking lot, or something like that, if it was nearer and, of course, if staying there for the night was allowed.

I don't know exactly what facilities they have at these campings, but I have eyewitness reports that there are RVs in the Camp-Allondon camping. It is nicely located near the woods and less than 500 meters from a restaurant. You can get to and from CERN by calling the local bus service (Telebus) an hour in advance, or you can walk through the vineyard (this should be shorter). I checked with security at CERN and they do not allow RVs at CERN for overnight stays, but you may be allowed to park during daytime. To do this you will have to notify them in advance, contact me off-list if you want to do this. As for nearby parking lots there are some in the vicinity, and you may be able to park there, but I'm not sure what the local customs are about this... HTH.

I don't think that the track-interest registration implies where you actually go later. I guess it's more for getting a picture about interests up-front.

The relevant bus to catch for CERN is the number 9. I'm unclear on exactly how much the trip will cost. It runs from about 5am through to a little after midnight: http://www.tpg.ch/Horaires/Affiches/Mai2006/Ligne_09/09.pdf Finally, I like boardgames. Does anyone else?

In-Reply-To: <200606290900.21860.richardjones@optushome.com.au> Message-ID: <4C5890AC4162B84F9661BEFE14762A0A5E9E2A@cernxchg04.cern.ch> Hello Richard, Someone else have to answer about the pre-conference sprints, but the bus fare is CHF 3 for a "tout Gen?ve" (whole Geneva) ticket. There are ticket machines on all bus-stops, no change given. There is a 20% rebate if you buy a pre-paid "cart at bonus", available at least in the kiosk in the main building close to the venue. It comes in sizes of CHF 20, 30 and 50.

To my surprise, the registration form is closed now. Does this mean I can only register at the door now, or is it still possible to obtain the reduced price? 50 euros is substantial for a poor student like me. ;) Johannes From mwh at python.net Thu Jun 29 11:17:15 2006 From: mwh at python.net (Michael Hudson) Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2006 10:17:15 +0100 Subject: [EuroPython] [Fwd: [EuroPython2006] Cancelling the conference: "Teaching OOP by writing a Web application"] In-Reply-To: <13a83ca10606281210r2d4563e3wb863a84a0d16e865@mail.gmail.com> (francois schnell's message of "Wed, 28 Jun 2006 21:10:43 +0200") References: <44A27BA3.8000204@itaapy.com> <2mhd25fndn.fsf@starship.python.net> <13a83ca10606281210r2d4563e3wb863a84a0d16e865@mail.gmail.com> Message-ID: <2mejx8e2xw.fsf@starship.python.net> "francois schnell" writes: > On 28/06/06, Michael Hudson wrote: > > Well, I've withdrawn the talk now. > > Hello, > > I'm going to Europython to learn from the conferences but If this > time-slot will not be filled maybe the organizers of the teaching or game > track could be interested by the Liberlab project. Sounds cool, I'll pencil you in. There are actually two gaps in the teaching/education track currently, unless Prof. Pettiaux starts answering his mail...

The good news is that there is a free car park just outside the site (in front of the Registration building, stretching between entrance A and B) where you can leave your car. Although this is not officially "guarded" the part close to entrance B (which is the only open one at that time) is visible to the guards, so if you park a Ferrari there, you can be sure they will watch it ... if it's not a Ferrari, well ... :-) Hope this answers your question ... cheers, andreas PS: I'll later update the map on http://cern.ch/EuroPython2006 to indicate this parking as well. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
