Hi all,
 Hope you have all recovered from PyCon UK! Just to give you a heads up, the 
annual Plone Conference is returning to Bristol this year. The conference is 
held in a different city around the world each year. After a very successful 
event in 2010, the conference will again be hosted in Bristol later this month. 
It will be held at the Thistle Hotel on Broad St, right in the city centre.

Plone is an Open Source Python-based CMS used in Universities, Corporate, 
Government and Non-Profit areas around the world. It is probably one of the 
largest Python projects in the world and one of the oldest Open Source CMSes. 

If you are interested in Plone, Content Management, Python or Open Source in 
general, this is a great chance to meet up and chat with experienced people 
from across the globe. Even if you don’t use Plone, or use different 
technologies it is a great chance to compare and contrast. 

The entire programme spans a full week, with the main 3 days of talks preceded 
by two days of structured training. There is a two-day development sprint 
following the main conference days.

This is probably the largest conference for an Open Source project to be held 
in Bristol, and we are very proud to be welcoming people to our fine city yet 
again. In 2010 we hosted 300 people from 32 different countries.

The talks list has just been published. We have a fantastic line up of talks 
ranging from case studies, to front end talks on javascript technologies, to 
backend python talks, to talks on scaling and hosting. This year we have 45 
speakers from 16 countries speaking:

We also have keynotes from Eric Steele the Plone 5 Release Manager, and a local 
keynote by Michael Johnson from PocketSpacecraft.comtaking about Kickstarting 
the Personal Space Age.

As well as training and an exciting line up of talks the conference party has 
also been organised in a newly renovated brewery 10 minutes walking distance 
from the conference venue. There will be a large selection of locally brewed 
ales and larger on offer as well as delicious home cooked food, and if that 
isn't enough there will also be a local Jazz band offering an evening of 
entertainment exclusively for conference attendee’s.

Hopefully see some of you there!
