Hi Martjin,
I definitely see where you're coming from having had the same reaction at first
when I saw the schedule for the first Europython in Florence a couple of years
back. For me personally, though, the idea of making your own conference worked
really well in the end.

Sorry but mobile forces top posting and laconic mode.
Martijn suggests shorter conferences.
I think that one week is fine: the last 2 EPs were a perfect mix of tech and
social event.
To foster Python community we need not just a guru conference, but a place to
share and meet the diverse use
I think it is neither the right place nor the right way nor the right time
to discuss what the reasonable length of a conference is. There are geeks that
want to spend a lot of time at the conference with talks and sprints, there are
people that are only interested in the talk but in sprints, ther

for going back to the original 3-day length of the conference, not to
criticize the organisation, it's just my personal preference.

Totally agree with martjin, adding up that also having a conference that
long makes it more expensive and some people will be discouraged to go.

Hi there,
I thought I'd give my preferences for conference length in the future.
It's just my point of view, but I had it for a while now, and I figure
I'd better share it to be more constructive.
For some years, EuroPython was 3 days of conference, with perhaps 3 or 4

If it helps, I'd happily free up this slot in the selected talks
list (https://ep2014.europython.eu/en/event/schedule/):
43 - Embedded Devices - Marc-Andre Lemburg - Home Automation with Kivy,
Raspberry Pi and MQTT
and perhaps do the talk as open space session, if there's interest.

Greetings
Is it possible to get some demographics on authors who submitted talks
vs authors of accepted talks? It would be good to know whether the
blind selection process functioned as intended (i.e. the demographics
of the two are statistically similar) or not.
The answer probably won't help us
