PyCon2006/Sprints/ConferenceSprint

Legacy Wiki Page

This page was migrated from the old MoinMoin-based wiki. Information may be outdated or no longer applicable. For current documentation, see python.org.

We’ll be working on a Django-based application to be used for PyCon 2007.

Goals

  • A first-draft system, and plans for its future development

Requirements

This section lists features that the final system should support. We’ll prioritize which ones to work on at the sprint.

  • Paper submission, processing, and acceptance

  • Assembling the schedule

  • Registration

  • Attendee feedback, during and after the conference

  • Admin interfaces for changing registrations

  • Sending e-mails to various subsets of users (e.g. all attendees, all committee members, all accepted authors)

  • Most properties should be configurable (e.g. conference name, critical dates, prices), though maybe not through the web.

Some ideas for the paper-submission portion are at <http://www.amk.ca/w/ConferenceSWIdeas>.

Participants

Please list your name here if you think you’ll make it.

Stephan Deibel – If there is a pydotorg sprint, which is still not certain, I may have to do that instead or in addition.

  • Martin Thomas - though trying to decide how to split self between this and Django
