Birds of a Feather

Birds of a Feather sessions (BoFs) are discussion about a particular topic within a group of interested folks. BoFs are a new addition to PyCon India this year.

Birds of Feather would be a bit different from other conferences, since this year we are planning to replace it with Open Spaces.

BoFs will be coordinated by the conference BoF Team.

Process

The announcement of BoF would be on the opening session.

The entries for BoFs will be taken via Google Form that will be shared on our communication channels (Hopin Chat, Zulip, Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin).

The entries would then slotted, and the respective person would be contacted to provide them with the appropriate time. Adjustment would time would be a rare event. Upon agreeing, the schedule will be updated both in Hopin, and Ical.

Both the conference days, there will be seperate forms to take in the entries for BoFs.

Hopin Setup

The BoFs will be hosted on Hopin Sessions, not on any of the stages.

As a Moderator

• At the very beginning of the BoF, you have to say “This BoF is under PyCon India 2020 Code of Conduct. So, Please be mindful of what you speak. In short, please be respectful to others”

• Enforce the CoC, or report immediately to CoC WG if you see a violation.
