That sounds great :-) This February's DjangoWeekend in Cardiff was a
great example of how awesome such a small event can be. IIRC PyCon UK
has also been sized down in recent years (sadly couldn't attend since
2008).

Yes, I understand PyCon US is more like EuroPython back in 2009, with 3 days

Just as teaser: The EPS has some ideas on a new additional
format to complement the main EuroPython conference.
The idea is to have a format which does not require huge
rooms, but rather several smaller ones, so that the event
can be held at venues such as universities, colleges, etc.

We should probably put the question of which format is preferred
on the conference feedback form and then see whether a change would
be worthwhile to improve the attendee experience.

There is people that organized his (family) holiday around EP.
Moving across Europe for just 3 days in the middle of July will reduce the
appeal of tech-tourism and make things like partner-program less effective.

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
parallel tracks with

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

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.
