- The Indico "workflow" needs approving.
- Any remaining theme descriptions need adding.
Notes
The things that need to be decided are mostly to do with finance and, by extension, sponsorship. If there's a formula to use to decide how much sponsors will be charged and how much attendees will pay, we need to start assigning values to some of the variables as soon as possible.
We also need to decide on keynote speakers and make arrangements for their travel and accommodation. They may also need some guidance about the material they want to present, such as how long the keynote slots are.
See [http://www.europython.org/sections/calendar the calendar] to get an idea of where we should be at this point in time.
