Hi there,
I just learned today that the Python Frameworks track chair is vacant. I
don't want to fill it myself (I've done it the last 3 years and want to
be a bit more free at the conference; plus someone else might actually
improve stuff. :), so I am hunting for a volunteer. I'll help out any

As promised, I have made a plan for the marketing. Comments and additions are
very welcome.
The most important parts of the marketing are the emails to previous attendees
and the psosts to c.l.p.a.
The products that are needed are:

Conference. This is the one chance in the UK each year to hear

takes place at the Randolph Hotel in Oxford on 21-23 April.

Typing "import this" at the python prompt is a good beginning.
I'm sure others can explain this better, but using Zope is
certainly a very different experience than "normal" Python
programming.
