> PyCon Australia is very proud to be able to reveal our programme for
> the 2014 conference, to be held on Saturday 2 and Sunday 3 August
> 2014, following our Miniconfs on Friday 1 August.
> 
> Following a record-breaking response to our Call for Proposals, the
> conference will feature three full tracks of presentations, across two
> days, covering all aspects of the Python ecosystem, presented by
> experts and core developers of key Python technology. Our presenters
> cover a broad range of backgrounds, including industry, research,
> government and academia.
> 
> PyCon Australia is a great place to keep up-to-date with the latest
> trends in Python web technology: Django lead developer, Simon Willison
> will be presenting "A new default web stack".  We have many experts in
> their fields, including CPython core developer, and Brisbane local,
> Nick Coghlan who will present some "elegant and ugly hacks in
> CPython".
> 
> As well as DjangoCon AU and the OpenStack miniconf, the main
> conference will feature talks on testing, deployment, and optimisation
> of Python-based web apps. For the first time this year we're also
> having a miniconf dedicated to talks on using Python in the Sciences.
> 
> This year, talks on growing the Python Community make up a large
> amount of our programme, with "The Curse of the Django Podcast" by
> Elena Williams exploring the role of community-driven media, and Anna
> Gerber's "PyBots! or how to learn to stop worrying and love coding"
> covering approaches to Python in education.
> 
> We've also made sure that beginners, or people looking to brush up on
> their Python skillset, have a clear path through the conference.
> Starting with Peter Lovett's "Python 101+" tutorial, you can rapidly
> enhance your knowledge of Python, and then you can attend our general
> stream talks to glean a snapshot of the state of the art in Python.
>
