Here is a draft i culled up from various sources :

INPycon 2009
============
Pycon-India 2009 [InPycon] is a community conference by the Python
developer community. A purely volunteer effort, it is being hosted for
the first time in India, and will attract some of the best minds in
the world of Free/Libre Source Software.

InPycon-2009 will be held in Bangalore, India, between Saturday,26th
September2009 and Sunday 27th September 2009. In true Libre software
spirit, INPycon is a volunteer run conference making INPycon2009
reliant on sponsorship to help turn it into a successful and memorable
event.

This is the first time that a purely volunteer driven effort by the
Indian Python community is organising the conference inside India. It
is a great opportunity to present Linux and free/libre source software
to schools and colleges in India, and to present India's growing
Python industry to the rest of the world.


How To Sponsor INPyCon 2009

In time this will scale into a truly international conference with
