| I am the editor-in-chief of The Python Papers (http://pythonpapers.org), a Python magazine created by a noncommercial group of enthusiasts. I am currently contacting various conference organisers about the possibilities of collaboration. Our next edition is due out in May, which is a little before EuroPython 2007 is scheduled for. | The editor of [http://pythonpapers.org The Python Papers] wrote recently to the EuroPython mailing list (see [http://mail.python.org/pipermail/europython/2007-February/006226.html the archived message] for more details). |

| I thought you might like to contribute an article covering the event to let people know more about it. It would also be good to include any information about last years' event, some selected photos etc. | == Comments and Reactions == |

| Additionally, in our next edition we will be including a review of python papers and articles published in the last year. Where we have access to conference proceedings, we will try to select a few articles for inclusion in this effort. Going forward, it would be great to have people nominate and vote for favourite articles. I was unable to find the proceedings of EuroPython 2006. Would it be possible to have access to this? | DavidBoddie [http://mail.python.org/pipermail/europython/2007-March/006237.html answered] suggesting Flickr as a source of pictures, with the permission of photographers to be sought: |

| Assuming you're successful, some of these photos should complement quite nicely what Nicolas is proposing to write. | Now in its sixth year, EuroPython - known more formally as the European Python and Zope conference - moves on once again, as is the EuroPython tradition of helping European Python users and others to inadvertently explore the European continent, descending upon Vilnius, the capital city of Lithuania, and calling it home from Monday 9th July until Wednesday 11th July. Although the programme for this year's conference has yet to be finalised, reports and materials from last year's highly successful event may be persuasive for those considering making EuroPython 2007 part of their schedule. |

| The CERN conference site is available for anyone to access: http://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=44 The timetable and speaker list pages available from that page are particularly useful.

EuroPython 2006 was held at one of Europe's most significant scientific sites: CERN (the European laboratory for particle physics research) in Geneva, Switzerland. With superb facilities and a rich programme of highly informative, entertaining and inspiring talks, along with an unparalleled backdrop of seriously big (and historic) scientific hardware, the conference proved to be as memorable as those which preceded it. |
