This week marks your last opportunity to submit proposals to present at 
PyCon Australia 2014, the national conference for the Python programming 
  community, to be held on August 2 and 3 in Brisbane, Queensland.

The deadline for proposal submission is Friday April 25, 2014, and more
information can be found at http://pycon-au.org/cfp

PyCon Australia is an excellent opportunity to share experience and
knowledge with like-minded Python developers from all walks of life --
we attract professional developers from industry, government, science
and education, along with enthusiast and student developers.
Presentations can be targeted at all skill levels, on any topic related
to Python programming.

This year, DjangoCon AU returns under the PyCon Australia umbrella,
it'll run on Friday 1 August, before the main conference. Every
Django-related proposal we receive in the PyCon Australia CFP will also
be considered as part of the DjangoCon AU programme.

We'll also be running a Science and Data Analysis miniconf alongside
DjangoCon AU. Every Science, Engineering, and Data Analysis-related
proposal will be considered as part of that miniconf's programme.

Finally, OpenStack-related proposals will also be considered as part of
an OpenStack miniconf.

If you're a first-time Python developer, don't be afraid to submit a
presentation -- we're a community-driven conference, and we have a focus 
on building the next generation of Python programmers.

We can't wait to see your proposals.
