Apologies - we all went wandering off into some kind of Monty Python
sketch ...
We will I'm sure be *very happy* with whatever you'd like to bring to
lead us in this "Open Spaces","BOF" land. IIRC you should have been
doing leading a similar event @ PyCon, but had a broken leg; however
your colleague (I was going to say "stand-in" but that would just lead
to more jokes..) did an excellent job of providing orientation early on
at that conference as to what was (or, actually, was not) expected, and
I'd hope that there would be the early opportunity at EP to do a similar
short intro. Looking forward to it! :-)

been to a bar camp, only heard about them, I wanted to make sure I
wasn't offering to describe something else than what you are asking for.

Just to clarify, I offered to explain Open Spaces
conferences, which is the
kind of conference I've been doing. My understanding is
that Bar Camps use
Open Spaces, but if that isn't correct you should let me know.
For PyConUK, we once had a long mailing list thread about
'BarCamp'
versus some other types of 'open space'. However, when it comes to
making cucumber sandwiches, it does not matter if you are a
pre-millenialist middle Anglo-Catholic instead of a
post-millenialist
high Anglican, you put butter and cucumber between slices of
bread.
Lets not worry about branding and philosophy, you have a load of
Python geeks sitting in a circle doing what the participants want,
rather than what we, the organisers, have pre-planned.
