Inspired by the PyCon tradition, the Brazilian Python Community is organising a PyCon-like event called: PyConDayBrasil.
We have gathered 14 people to give speeches exclusively about Python in an event that will take place in April 28th/29th. The event's URL is below (only in Brazilian Portuguese pt-br): http://www.pythonbrasil.com.br/moin.cgi/PyConDayBrasil We hope that this event will not be just a standalone happening, but the beginning of a tradition. Moreover, we will strive to find sponsors to allow us to invite international speakers in the following years. To illustrate the scope of PyConDayBrasil, this year's program is composed by: - Python applications to science and engineering (Vinicius Franco do Nascimento) - Molecular Alignment Analysis in Python (Frederico Gonzalez Colombo Arnoldi) - Python in Undergraduate Courses (Marco André Lopes Mendes) - Exploring Boa Constructor (Luciano Pacheco) - Python refreshes your thinking (Osvaldo Santana Neto) - Plone for Pythonistas (Fabiano "Xiru" Weimar dos Santos) - Python-Fu inside Gimp (Joao S.
