Hi,
I don't know how many people here read comp.lang.python or the main python
list (I suspect its a fair few), but there's been this post:

Subject: About PyCamp - a Regional Python Unconference
A week or so ago, the Dallas and Houston Python User Groups met online in a
chat room, to discuss the possibility of a regional Python conference.
...
And tossing around some names, we decided upon "PyCamp". There is much to
be discussed re dates, location and how it will operate, so I set up the
website:
http://pycamp.python.org/
...
The rough idea is to hold a Texas-wide unconference, perhaps sometimes in
August and near Austin. There was also the idea of holding a rotating
unconference that moves between Dallas, Austin and Houston, say twice a
year.
Now, I've got an idea for a venue in Manchester[*] which could probably
cater to about 50-70 people depending on how the rooms are laid out which
would work out to something like £15 - £20 *without* sponsorship. If we
can get sponsorship then that figure would go down or could maybe be
redirected into arranging food or similar ?

As a result, I'm wondering - is anyone else interested in co-convening such a
beast? If there is, please email me back!
Michael.
