As promised and finally delivered... Laura, I choose option 1 ("First of
all, you could simply mail your suggested new text to me (lac) or
jacob")Title: if no one objects immediately, I want this one: Social aspects and other general topics B�atrice Fontaine First presented in 2004 under the heading "Social Skills", this track was intended to address a problem common to all communities of software developers, a.k.a. geeks: that of having to communicate with other groups/individuals who are driven by totally different priorities, such as corporate/academic politics, finances, etc. Since the track schedule was defined by its presenters as much as by its attendees, it ultimately covered vital topics like software patenting as well as the reality of selling your services, on top of the social aspects of collaboration with other staff, and customers. This year, the track has therefore been extended to officially include "other general topics". The following are on the most-wanted list today: Social Skills: - How to present and sell yourself? - How to collaborate in mixed (tech/non-tech) teams? - How do language problems affect collaboration? Methodology: - An invitation to all readers of methodological books to present their own favourite and to explain which impact it had on their professional activities - Hands-on presentations of how new methods of work have been implemented by development teams, and with which results (the bad ones and the good ones!) Politics of Open Source: How are we affected by recent developments in the EU software patent battle? This is an open list and will, like last year, be stretched and ironed to incorporate every useful and interesting topic you propose. *** -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I will, as we say in rock 'n' roll, run until the wheels come off, because I love what I do." -- David Crosby _______________________________________________ EuroPython mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/europython
