From brian at python.org Mon Feb 3 17:00:47 2014 From: brian at python.org (Brian Curtin) Date: Mon, 03 Feb 2014 16:00:47 -0000 Subject: [PyAR2] PyCon 2014 Call for Proposals, New Website Message-ID: Hi Python ARtists of ARkansas! PyCon 2014, taking place April 9-17 in Montreal, has just passed 1600 tickets sold, and we're seeing sales ramp up very quickly. Late last week we were announcing the 1500 mark, and with a cap of 2000 tickets, we expect these last four hundred to move quickly. Head to https://us.pycon.org/2014/registration/ to buy yours today! This year's talk schedule is available at https://us.pycon.org/2014/schedule/talks/, along with a keynote series including EFF co-founder John Perry Barlow; IPython creator, Fernando Perez; PSF director, Jessica McKellar; PSF chairman, Van Lindberg; and Python's creator, Guido van Rossum. The tutorial schedule is available at https://us.pycon.org/2014/schedule/tutorials/, and spaces are limited! You'd be hard pressed to find a better value than our tutorials. We've long thought PyCon to be family friendly, and last year's aYoung Codera tutorials were a hugely successful step towards showing it. The tutorials are back again this year, with registration opening shortly for children 12 and over: https://us.pycon.org/2014/events/letslearnpython/. For kids under 12, we're pleased to be offering childcare! See https://us.pycon.org/2014/childcare/ for details. The 5K Charity Fun Run is on its third year, with proceeds benefiting the EFF. It's a fun time and supports a good cause. For the 5K and many other events, check out the Events section on https://us.pycon.org/2014/ Make sure your passport is in order, as you need one to cross the border.

The brochure will be printed in a first edition of 10,000 copies which the PSF will then distribute to user groups, Python conferences and educational institutions on request and free of charge. With the Python brochure, we hope to reach out to an audience which is not easy to address and convince using electronic and mostly developer oriented media. ________________________________________________________________________ PREVIEW Please take a look at our preview PDF version of the brochure to see for yourself: http://brochure.getpython.info/preview.pdf ________________________________________________________________________ SEEKING YOUR HELP The team set out to create and print the brochure without introducing extra costs for the PSF. Our aim is to fully finance the brochure production, printing and shipment to interested parties using money from sponsors. To make this happen, we are seeking your help ! => We have already signed up sponsors for 6 half page ads, but still need another *5 half page ad sponsors* to sign up. => There are also *6 smaller reference entry sponsorships* left to be sold. If you are affiliated with or know a company investing into Python and looking for ways to reach out to a large audience of interested Python users, students, developers - and people in key decision making positions, please reach out to us and help make the project a success. The deadline for ad and reference entry signups is *Feb 28* - in just under three weeks. You can find all the details about the available sponsorship options on this page: http://brochure.getpython.info/sponsorship Orders can be placed directly with the production company, Evenios Publishing on the website. All sponsors will receive a box of about 120 free copies of the brochure as Thank You gift. ________________________________________________________________________ ORDERING EXTRA COPIES Companies who are interested in receiving extra copies can pre-order additional boxes which will then be printed in addition to the initial 10.000 copy batch: http://brochure.getpython.info/mediadata/subscription-order-procedure It is also possible to donate such extra boxes to educational institutions: http://brochure.getpython.info/mediadata/education-sponsorship If you have special requirements, please contact the team at brochure at getpython.info for more information.
