I, OTOH, am unperturbed. Things have been much in flux this year, and a last minute short notice thing like this post needs wide dissemination. Normally a conference needs few posts, but this year everything is different and plans have changed a lot, on the fly. I have never attended EuroPython and probably never will (I'm on the other side of the planet) but I'm still interested. Rather than subscribe to every conference thing, getting them here is very convenient. As with all posters and topics, a truly annoying one can always be blocked at your personal discretion with a filter rule, eg to discard "europython". I know that advice verges on the spammers' claim that "you can always opt out" but for me this stuff isn't spam.
