It looks like you've misread the instructions on the website. The conference is in two parts - the main conference and developer sprints. The main conference happened on Thursday and Friday at Amanora "The Fern" Club and the dev sprints are at the Red Hat office on Saturday and Sunday - in fact I am writing to you from the dev sprints. If you have a dev sprint ticket, feel free to come to the Red Hat office in Magarpatta City. Dev sprint teams have started winding up now for today, but you can come say hi to us. If not, feel free to join us tomorrow after 9AM.

Let's start a separate thread for Keynote speakers. The main reason for suggesting Oct 27-29 was it would be late in Oct hopefully avoiding some of the heat Delhi is famous for.

Would it make sense to do the Keynote talk in a separate thread or since dates could depend on when these folks are available.

Just want to know if the organising committee had a chance to look at the venue selection guidelines ( https://github.com/pythonindia/pyconindia-handbook/blob/master/guidelines/venue.rst). It would be better to decide/suggest other venues, if someone can update here the facilities provided in IIM. I attended PyCon India last year in JNU and am not really sure if we can consider that as an option. I don't think that the participants were happy with the venue as we heard a lot of negative feedbacks. We might have to keep that in mind this year. > If some one has a better option and can help us in getting that venue, > please do let us know. > We are looking for input on the dates to book the venue for. > > October 27, 28, 29 looks like a good option. > Since Diwali is on 19th October, am not sure if these dates will be convenient for people to take leaves for consecutive weeks.

Seating 829+ in Main hall, 2 smaller halls with 300+ seating. Internet is available however we would have to manage our own routers. We have access to 2 meeting halls to where we can hold the developer sprints. Green rooms are available behind each Audi allowing us to use them for storage and other such needed activities. There is enough space available to hold open spaces. Rest of the things/ challenges would clear up when we hold PyDelhi Conf there this March. > Since Diwali is on 19th October, am not sure if these dates will be > convenient for people to take leaves for consecutive weeks. > > The weekend just before Diwali should be fine then. 13th 14th 15th Oct Regards Akkshay > Thanks, > Vanitha > > > _______________________________________________ > Inpycon mailing list > Inpycon at python.org > https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/inpycon > > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Having the conference in late October is not advisable. These dates fall in mid October so it may be okay. The only time we had PyCon in October before was in 2015 but it was the first week-end of October. Is there anything preventing us from hosting the conference in the venue during September ? Suggest to discuss it before finalizing the dates.
