The submission deadline for PyCon 2006 is now a week away. PyCon 2006 will be in Dallas, Texas, February 24-26 2006.
For 2006, I'd like to see more tutorial-style talks on the program. This means that your talk doesn't have to be about something entirely new; you can show how to use a particular language feature, standard library module, examine some aspect of a Python implementation, or compare the available libraries in an application domain. For example, the most popular talk at 2005 was Michelle Levesque's PyWeboff, which compare various web development tools. The next most popular (ignoring a few keynotes and the lightning talks) were Alex Martelli's talks on iterators & generators, and on OOP. Partly that's because it's Alex, of course, but I think attendees want help in deciding which tools are good/helpful/safe to use. If you need an idea, http://wiki.python.org/moin/PyCon2005/Feedback lists some topics that 2005's attendees were interested in.
