The SciPy 2006 Conference is now being organized for late summer. Anyone with feedback about dates or format for the conference, please join the scipy-user discussion found at scipy.org, or talk to Travis Vaught from Enthought.
<open space talks for today>
Today's keynote is something new and different. It will be in interview format, a discussion between Steve Holden and Bram Cohen, CEO and co-founder of BitTorrent. He is also the co-founder of CodeCon and the author of Codeville, a version control system.
Closing Address
The Python Software Foundation is the non-profit organization that makes PyCon possible by taking on the financial risk of booking the venues far in advance of receiving the money for registrations. The PSF also uses its financial resources to protect the intellectual property behind Python, keeping it free, and for development grants and in other areas where some money can make a difference to the community. If you work at a company that uses Python, please consider having your company become a sponsor member of the PSF. Or, please contribute to the PSF by making donations through the website. The PSF is a 501(c)3 non-profit so US tax payers can deduct donations from their taxes.
