^^^ is a fantastic idea. A few of us did this informally here in the UK before the final Birmingham conference (we called it WormCon - like PyCon but smaller) and some of us practise talks in front of the London Python Dojo. It's generally useful for *all* speakers to get feedback although concentrating on first-timers is definitely the way to go. > > > _______________________________________________ Europython-improve > mailing list Europython-improve@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/europython-improve -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJPPSfiAAoJEP0qBPaYQbb6W4gIAJJJV8T6yWRGxmkd5tneKYOj YwnA8rBvNKSnX13kAYn7Vkeu1z7TnFhoKeOVQk2YxpmfzvodYJcDcrAZBtq71El8 7TxqKUQDMffoLSN8W5dtlQGg32t/k2MgntNmn1UeaoQEiiDQbrOYWCM9JN4eL2S8 EcXiyFEj84DysO2bGk7P/HH2lTHY9ZIMoSnu0EbTyQgbaJXAUxrxaX4DNdZIbs4M S8SkjJWlDQGdwuh3O4FmQO7qinnI1IFv2tUaAM3AeENJmcl9juwA1R66NhFkp0bi //y8c3ky87n15UxNBIZryY0IDlNK9waacVuK2iQsLyRhCYCC1b3e12Vc8SiXOp8= =Iq3M -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Europython-improve mailing list Europython-improve@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/europython-improve
