PyCon2010 Organizer’s Planning is here.

Next meeting: Tuesday, March 25, at 19:00 UTC (2PM Eastern, 1PM Central, 12PM Mountain, 11AM Pacific).

Update: Some people are already on-site, others are on their way, so there won’t be a formal meeting. But some people will be online.

Meetings will be held every week on Tuesday.

Meetings are held via IRC. We use the ‘#pycon’ channel on irc.freenode.net. Connection details (instructions) here.

There is a “PyCon Planning” Google calendar. If you want write access, ask David Goodger (or just ask on the pycon-organizers list).
