What is PyCon?

PyCon is the largest annual gathering for the community using and developing the open-source Python programming language.

PyCon is really three events in a row:

    *  Tutorial Days: Wednesday February 17 & Thursday February 18 Learn something new and relevant in intensive 3-hour sessions. The evenings are free for socializing and Open Space.
    *  Conference Days: Friday February 19 through Sunday February 21. See what's going on in the Python world, meet your fellow Pythonistas, share your knowledge and experience, make contacts, brainstorm projects, discuss prospects... the sky's the limit.
          o  Scheduled talks will happen in the ballrooms. 4 tracks of talks and panels on a wide variety of topics will be presented, with something for everyone. Also we'll have keynote talks every day.
          o  Open Space sessions: an "unconference" in parallel with the scheduled talks.
          o  Lightning talks are quick 5-minute talks that you can sign up for at the conference. In a word, lightning talks are FUN!
          o  Expo Hall: Meet with representatives of companies using Python, supporting Python, and hiring Pythonistas. Snag some swag! Many sponsors will be recruiting, so come prepared with business cards and resumes if you're in the job market. You can also check out the Python Job Board for listings.
          o  And don't forget the hallway track!
    *  Development Sprints: Monday February 22 through Thursday February 25.

      Help advance your favorite project, including Python itself! We provide the space and the infrastructure (network, power, tables & chairs), you provide the enthusiasm and the brainpower. All experience levels welcome. The sprints are free!
