PyCon Australia attracts professional developers from all walks of life,
including industry, government, and science, as well as enthusiast and
student developers. We’re looking for proposals for presentations and
tutorials on any aspect of Python programming, at all skill levels from
novice to advanced.

Presentation subjects may range from reports on open source, academic or
commercial projects; or even tutorials and case studies. If a presentation
is interesting and useful to the Python community, it will be considered
for inclusion in the program. We're especially interested in short
presentations that will teach conference-goers something new and useful.
Can you show attendees how to use a module? Explore a Python language
feature? Package an application?

For more information, please visit https://2016.pycon-au.org/cfp.

Thanks very much to all prospective speakers from the program committee --
we really appreciate it!
