Want to share your expertise? PyConUK 2007 is looking for proposals to fill the formal presentation tracks. PyConUK 2007 will be held September 8-9 2007 in the dead centre of Birmingham.

We will accept a broad range of presentations, from reports on academic and commercial projects to tutorials and case studies. As long as the presentation is interesting and potentially useful to the Python community, it will be considered for inclusion in the program.

Can you show the conference-goers something new and useful? Can you show attendees how to: use a module? explore a Python language feature? package an application?

Most talks will be 30 minutes, although 60 minutes may be allocated for a particularly valuable talk requiring an extended length of time. There will also be a dedicated Lightning Talk session for talks no longer than five minutes.

PyconUK is a not for profit community conference, so we sadly cannot reward speakers (but what price on glory!).

Important Dates

Session lengths include time for audience questions. You should budget at least five minutes for questions; for example, a 30-minute talk will be 25 minutes of presentation and 5 minutes of questions.

We suggest, but do not require, that authors place their papers under the GNU Free Documentation License or Creative Commons license.

Presentations and papers may be in text, HTML, or PDF.
