It's less expensive than typical industry conferences but it's about 3x as expensive as CodeCon was, comparing at-the-door charges. Plus there's travel and possibly lodging expenses if you're not local to the venue. Plus there's extra charges for the tutorials, if you want to attend those. All in all, at least this past one was something that I couldn't seriously consider going to. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
