[Inpycon] [PyCon 2013] Programming Challenges, Hackathons & Sprints, in Python at PyCon

[me kracekumar]

Pycon india is volunteer driven,  we are happy to do it.

Main challenges

1. Logistics
2. Venue
3. Volunteer for co-ordinating sprints.

Currently we have booked venue for three days. In case if you like to take
up this task, please make more elaborate write up about format. Man power
is main problem we are unable to try anything new other than talks and
workshop.
