PyCon India 2012
September 28-30, 2012
The organisers of PyCon India 2012 are looking for talk and tutorial proposals to fill the formal presentation and tutorial tracks. We accept proposals on a very broad range of topics related to Python programming.
Please follow the instructions below carefully before preparing a proposal and submitting it.
Important Dates
- Call for proposals opens: June 26, 2012
- Proposal submission deadline: August 25, 2012
- Proposal acceptance: Aug 31, 2012
- First presentation upload: Sep 15, 2012
- Final presentation upload (with changes if any): Sept 25, 2012
Permission to record/release presentations
In PyCon India, we intend to record all presentations live and release the recordings for free on the Internet so as to benefit the wider Python community. When you are submitting a proposal, you automatically give the Indian Python Software Society, the organizers of PyCon India, the permissions to record/edit and release the audio/video of your presentation.
Please note that no exceptions would be made in this regard.
The released media will be licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, version 3.0.
Talk Format
The typical length of a talk should be no more than 45 minutes. The
presentation style should be concise, to the point with sufficient
examples to clarify the discussion to the audience, if needed. After
every talk there will be time reserved for questions from the audience (10 minutes). We will be providing a buffer of 5-10 minutes between talks so that the presenters get sufficient time to set-up their talk and attendees can move between the halls.
Tutorial Format
The typical length of the tutorial should be no more than 3 hours. All the classes run in PyCon India are volunteered. If you like to propose a tutorial, The submission of the tutorials also follow the same time lines as the talks.
