EuroPython 2008 and EuroSciPy 2008 Coming in July
Saturday April 19, 2008
EuroPython, the main Python conference in Europe will be held in Vilnius, Lithuania again this year from 7-12 July. The Call for Participation is published and proposals on the following themes are welcome:
Additionally, the first meeting of EuroSciPy will be held later in the same month, 26-27 July, in Leipzig. This is meant to bring the benefits of CalTech's SciPy closer to home for those who only see palm trees on holiday. Registration for the meeting is hosted by Python Academy, and the Call for Papers was recently posted on the Python list. Where EuroPython is for more generalist programming applications, it is worth noting that SciPy and now EuroSciPy are intended to have a more scientific bend and focus on the uses of SciPy, NumPy, and similar uses of Python.
Python Language (featuring Python 3000, Python implementations and Python packaging)
Python in Action (Python projects and deployments in government, industry and beyond)
Mobile Computing (Python in mobile and embedded devices)
Large Scale Python (Python in research, distributed computing, scientific computing)
Web Programming (Python on the Web: Zope 3, Django and everything else)
Database Programming (object-relational mappers and data management techniques)
User Interfaces (across or beyond the Web, the desktop and the device)
Games (featuring pygame, pyglet and other game-making technologies)
