It would be great if that were a typo and that they in fact meant 10th March! Matthew -----Original Message----- From: python-uk-bounces at python.org [mailto:python-uk-bounces at python.org] On Behalf Of Andy Robinson Sent: 28 February 2006 11:39 To: python-uk at python.org Subject: [python-uk] UK Python Conference - 19-22 April 2006 The ACCU is once again hosting a UK Python Conference on the above dates at the Randolph Hotel in Oxford. Sign up now..... http://www.accu.org/index.php/conferences/2006/schedule PROGRAMME ========= I am happy to announce that Guido van Rossum is once again a keynote speaker for the entire ACCU conference. Following his keynote we have a single, 2-day Python track on Wednesday and Thursday including... Steve Holden: The Best of PyCon Michael Hudson: Error Handling with Recovery Phil Thompson: PyQT 4 Michael Hudson: PyPy - a progress report Simon Willison: Django Remi Delon: CherryPy and TurboGears Chris Withers: Templating systems Andy Robinson: Metadata and models in Python Andrew Thompson: Financial Programming in Python ...and of course lightning talks and BOFS will be welcome.... Friday will feature a Dynamic Languages track with in-depth talks on Javascript, Ruby and Groovy, which I am sure will be of great interest to Python developers. PRE CONFERENCE PYTHON TUTORIAL: =============================== John Pinner will be giving a full day "Python for Programmers" tutorial on Tuesday prior to the main event. This tutorial is aimed at programmers who have no previous knowledge of Python but who would like to know more about it. If you want to convert your colleagues, this is where to send them.... ABOUT THE ACCU CONFERENCE ========================= For those not familiar with the event, the ACCU conference is one of the foremost gatherings of programming talent in the world, regularly featuring authors and major figures from the C/C++/C#/Java/Python and other communities. The cheapest way to attend is to join the ACCU This will be the LAST CHANCE to attend this fantastic event; after more than 5 years of being nurtured by the ACCU, the UK Python community will hopefully be organising a standalone conference in future years. Python talks will continue to be welcome (and we hope numerous) on the ACCU programme, but not as an advertised "mini-conference"; instead we'll be shifting focus to dynamic languages in general.

Matthew Andy> I know the organisers have extended it and I believe it was Andy> a bit later - I'll find out and get back to you. My understanding was that their server went down on the last day of the early bird registration period, so they extended it to the following Monday (13th). All a bit of a mess. But as far as I know, the "cheap" period has passed. For next year, just become an ACUU member and sign up to the mailing list -- then you'll get informed in time.

I heard back from the organiser that it was extended again to 24th in the end, again because the server wasn't working; apparently they emailed previous attendees and ACCU members about this, but I have been on holiday most of February and wasn't in the loop. I must admit that if I had engaged my brain about conference marketing in January we could probably have given people the chance. In any event I have asked about a 'package deal' for the two Python days and hope to find out tomorrow if they can do anything.
