DjangoCon Officially Announced

Posted on July 13, 2008

There’s been lots of discussion and hints over the past several days about a forthcoming Django based conference called DjangoCon. The official announcement was just released. I’ve always been fond of small intimate group settings and this one will certainly be that with only 200 attendees allowed to participate. I only hope that I get one of the coveted spots.

    Anyone know why 200? Seems like a rather small number for what would seem like a pretty kick arse occasion – maybe its the limit of the venue ?

    Al: See my notes in the comments here: http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2008/jul/13/djangocon/

    We deliberately went for less this year, and the venue was chosen based on that. Next year will be a lot larger.

    I’m assuming the registration system will be done in django :P

    Maybe next year. Given that there’s little over a month left till DjangoCon 2008, we won’t be doing that this year.
