Open Space
PyCon features extra rooms for attendees to schedule informal presentations or discussions. These "Open Space" rooms let you customize your experience at PyCon to match your specific interests.
Several rooms will be available during the conference days. There will be plenty of room, so make PyCon yours by using Open Space to create an event on whatever topic you wish.
Ideas for Open Space Sessions
- Have a "Birds-of-a-Feather" (BoF) session
- Get deeper into the details of a scheduled talk
- Give a presentation or tutorial
- Hold a panel discussion
- Run a mini-sprint
- Brainstorm about a new project
To Set Up An Open Space Event
Anytime before PyCon starts:
- Decide on the title and content of the event
- Create a site Login (if you do not already have one)
- Create a wiki page for it.
To create a page, just type in a url under the /2009/openspace/ root url, and click 'Create Page'. The Wiki uses ReStructuredText for the markup, and a ' Title ' is required.
