A successful #EuroPython sprint - 25 challenge coins awarded, 30 issues resolved (with a couple more in the review queue still to come), and 3 major investigations completed - including one that has the potential to resolve a long standing Briefcase issue. A huge Thank You to the EuroPython 2025 organizers, and to everyone who came along to the BeeWare sprints.
It turns out that @timothy is a huge fan of Murderbot We watched the first four episodes before I had to leave for #EuroPython and now that I'm back he has insisted that we finish the show this weekend.
New form set up during the #EuroPython sprints – share any quotes or testimonials we could reuse in Django marketing https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfkkvFZnLi_Mg_DnMwMC8g3V5ke2RnA4y4yXiTyaBU-zPFJ8w/viewform?usp=dialog
We got so many people coming by our booth just to say thank you / share how much they appreciate #Django and the community, wanted to try and capture some of this so we can make use of it in our work
I don’t think PyCon FR was mentioned at #EuroPython? It’s in 3 months, it’s
free
, it’s in Lyon (great food), very reachable by train or bike, or plane. Did I mention it’s free? https://www.pycon.fr/2025/en/ Run by @AFPy
OH AND… the CFP closes this evening! It’s bilingual English - French
Today wraps up #EuroPython2025 for me. I wanted to visit the first day of the sprints, but did the same mistake as last year by having way too tight of a schedule. At least I'm in not stuck in Leipzig at 1 AM
This year was a blast! I don't know if it was objectively better, but it was better for me personally. I could overcome shyness way better than last time and made more great acquaintances It makes having to leave now even sadder, but I'm looking forward to next year's #EuroPython (and maybe some other conferences in the meantime, who knows
)
Thanks to Will and Katia for sharing my last evening in Prague with me. It was lovely to have dinner together and stroll through the city center, a bit of a break after a busy week. See you all at the next conference.
