We need to build a grass roots level enthusiasm and support for the
whole idea first.
No interesting talks and no one is going to show.
Otherwise all the work to organize such event becomes a huge time suck
that no one is willing to step forward to take on.
Dream all you want, but a crowd with boots on the ground will make it
happen.
People willing or unwilling to step forward to talk will tell you if
the idea is solid or not.

I wouldn't worry about getting enough talks. The Django group is
always good for some, There are people at the U (grad students
always love to talk). etc.

Do YOU have an idea for a talk that can last for 20 to 40 minutes?
Is so, then post your ideas to this email list.
The community needs to gauge this core driving factor first.
If we want people to show up in Seattle for a fun filled day about
Python.
Then having interesting talks nailed down first will drive the
community.
Organizing things like a space and finding sponsors and all the
other parts becomes much easier then.
Any ideas out here?
