[Inpycon] Keynote Speaker Suggestions

[Vijay Kumar]

Hi Everyone,
We have some good news! Based on the suggestions on the mailing list,
and inputs from the keynote speaker selection panel, we sent out
invites to the following speakers: Wes McKinney, David Beazley, Jake
Vanderplas, Brett Cannon, Ines Montani and Victor Stinner. And the
following have accepted our invite:

   * David Beazley
   * Ines Montani
   * Victor Stinner

With this, we have nice mix of keynote speakers from various areas
related to Python.

   * David Beazley for frameworks in general and Async IO in
     particular.

   * Ines Montani for NLP & AI, business and women-in-tech.
     Incidentally, Matthew Honnibal is also accompanying Ines to
     to PyCon India.

   * Victor Stinner for core Python and community building. Victor
     Stinner is especially pumped-up and hopes to see to that his
     presence would result in more contribution to Core Python from
     India. And eventually result in more Core Python developers from
     the Indian community.

We have asked the keynote speakers for their photos and
short-bios. Once we get them, we will start making announcements and
will update the website next week.

I would like to thank Ramanathan (from HydPy) and Kushal Das, for
helping us in getting touch with the keynote speakers, and for
following-up with them.

Regards,
Vijay
