Dear all, (Sorry if you receive this announcement multiple times.)
Registration for SciPy 2012, the eleventh annual Conference on Scientific Computing with Python, is open! Go to https://conference.scipy.org/scipy2012/register/index.php We would like to remind you that the submissions for talks, posters and tutorials are open *until April 30th, *which is just around the corner. For more information see: http://conference.scipy.org/scipy2012/tutorials.php http://conference.scipy.org/scipy2012/talks/index.php For talks or posters, all we need is an abstract. Tutorials require more significant preparation. If you are preparing a tutorial, please send a brief note to Jonathan Rocher (jroc...@enthought.com) to indicate your intent. We look forward to seeing many of you this summer.
