DjangoCon '09 Schedule

2009-08-12 Thread Robert Lofthouse

Hi All,

You can purchase tickets for the conference here - 
http://djangocon09.eventbrite.com

We have released the DjangoCon Schedule at: 
http://www.djangocon.org/2009/conference/schedule/
and will be releasing more information over the next day or two.

DjangoCon is on 8th - 12th September in Portland, Oregon at the
DoubleTree Green Hotel. We had a great time last year at Google HQ,
where 250 people turned up for the first ever DjangoCon.

Keynotes are: Avi Bryant, Ian Bicking and Ted Leung. We have a wide
variety of talks from all aspects of the community, including a
Technical Design Panel where you get to discuss design ideas/
confusions with the Core devs. DjangoCon is a great place to learn
more about the framework, talk to experienced developers/companies and
meet people in the community.

DjangoCon '09 - DoubleTree Green Room Block

2009-08-05 Thread Robert Lofthouse

I would like to make everyone aware that the room block ends on
Monday, August 17th. You will still be able to register for the
conference up to the 4th September, but accommodation-wise you will
either have to register with the DoubleTree Green hotel at the regular
rate or try and find cheaper accommodation elsewhere.

I recommend registering for the conference as soon as possible so you
can take advantage of the DoubleTree conference rate ($99 per night) -
http://djangocon09.eventbrite.com. Speakers/Talks approved so far will
be on the website tonight and the schedule will be up on 8th August.

If you have already registered for the conference I will send around
another email with the link for the hotel booking page.

If you have any issues with registering due to paypal problems let me
know and I'll make Google checkout an option.

Regards

Robert Lofthouse
DjangoCon Chairman

DjangoCon '08 was a success at Google HQ in Mountain View (see the

You wouldn't currently be able to do that, at least in your proposed
structure because you have a file path /admin/
change_list.html and inside the change_list.html you are extending
"admin/change_list.html", which the template engine isn't currently
"smart" enough to deal with, as from the template engine's perspective
you're trying to extend "yourself", hence the recursion error.
Granted, i'm not the best person to talk to when it comes to the
template side of things, but i've had to write a patch for my own work
before with regard to the recursion issue.

DjangoCon Sao Paulo

2008-08-20 Thread Robert Lofthouse

Hi all,

As this hasn't been widely advertised, I thought i'd mention it here.

We will be providing a video conference service from Google Sao Paulo
for anyone interested in going there to watch DjangoCon on both
Saturday 6th September and Sunday 7th September.

Everyone will meet at 11:00 local time (Sao Paulo), leave for lunch at
noon and then come back at 13:00 for the video conference. When
everyone in Mountain View is having lunch, you will have a larger
break (with more food).

If you're interested (which will most likely be people in that
region ;)), you can register here: http://djangocon.org/register/

I'll have a blog sorted out on djangocon.org soon, so you'll be able
to subscribe to rss feeds etc.

Regards

Rob
