Work on Call for Participation for EuroPython 2015 has started

By Marc-Andre Lemburg on 30 Jan 2014

The EuroPython Society (EPS) has started work on preparing the Call for Participation (CFP) for organizing the EuroPython 2015 conference.

For 2015, we are setting up a new structure for the conference organization, which is focused on local and distributed work groups that are closely integrated with the EuroPython Society.

We hope to greatly reduce the work load for the local teams, attract community members that want to get involved and to streamline the whole process of transitioning from one location to the next, making the conference organization a lot easier for everyone.

If you are interested in potentially signing up as local team or participating in the work groups, please subscribe to one of our communication channels:

We are aiming for end of February as announcement date for the CFP 2015.

Enjoy,

EuroPython Society website now live

By Marc-Andre Lemburg on 16 Jan 2014

The EuroPython Society has created a new website to collect information on EuroPython, the society and its workings.

For those who don’t know: the society is a Swedish non-profit organization which was formed in 2004 by the EuroPython organizers to put on EuroPython conferences.

A new board was voted in at the EuroPython 2012 conference. Given the size of EuroPython conferences, we’re working on formalizing the EuroPython selection process, providing resources and arranging with local teams to run EuroPython conferences.

We consider the EuroPython Society the representation of the EuroPython attendees, so if you have questions, requests for improvements or other ideas on how to improve the series, please feel free to contact us.

You can also become members of the EuroPython Society at no charge and then vote at the general assembly of the society. Please visit our members page for more information.
