PyCon India 2012 is here


http://in.pycon.org/2012/
PyCon India 2012 is the primary Python conference in India. A purely volunteer effort, it is being hosted for the fourth time in India, and will attract some of the best Python developers in India and abroad.

The conference will consist of tutorials, full length presentations, shorter lightning talks and open sprints and BoFs.


Keynote Speakers:

1. David Mertz is the well-known author of the "Charming Python" series
of articles published in IBM developer works. He is also the author of "Text processing in Python" and is a director of the board of members of the Python Software Foundation. He is also an expert in voting and security aspects related to voting, and open-voting in particular.

2. Jacob Kaplan-Moss is a lead-developer and co-creator of Django.
Jacob currently works for Revolution Systems and in his previous life worked for Lawrence Journal-World, a locally-owned newspaper in Lawrence, Kansas, where he helped develop and eventually open source Django.

With these two luminaries presenting keynotes and sharing their experiences with Python and their projects, and with a good selection of other talks, you don't want to miss PyCon India this year!

With a lot of interesting talks coming up (including 2 talks proposed by a core CPython developer), this is promising to be best PyCon India ever.

The last date for regular registration is August 31. Please register soon. Tickets are available here: http://pyconindia2012.doattend.com/
