Well, PyCON is talking about getting rid of the PyCON software
and moving over to this: http://www.matrixgroup.net/solutions/matrix-maxx-ams/
which is Andrew Kutchling's company.

The PyCON situation has created a huge dependency on those who are
experts with the software.  Last I checked there was significant
amounts of finger pointing going on 'you aren't responsive to
our needs' vs 'you expect us to read your minds and don't
communicate effectively with us'.  I have no idea who is correct
about this one -- perhaps both sides are -- but it indicates a
problem I do not wish to have.
