All right, so thank you everyone for joining It's that kind of session again, you know the closing session So your Python 2020 the 19th your Python conference is almost over
and For some this is probably sad for others. It's actually a good thing because it was quite quite intense tiring stressful and You know, it was long hours, but it's not over yet. So There's still something coming which is called sprints the hackathons on Saturday and Sunday and I already posted
Some instructions or some, you know explanations of how we think we're going to run them If you want to run a sprint, please go to this page that I have posted here and register your sprint there We right now we have these sprints already set up, but we can add additional ones
Tomorrow morning, we would have to add them And then is he have the applause ready and then We yeah, we can then take it away from there. So I want to I Would like to have all the sprint teams do a short presentation basically like what you normally do at an regular sprint where you present all the different teams and then people move off into different rooms to
Then actually work So it would be nice if you could prepare something for two minutes or so very short and then we can do that tomorrow Right. So some statistics We had between nine hundred and one thousand attendees from over 70 countries
The we cannot really give you an exact number because The closest we can give you to the number of attendees is the number of unique Email addresses and that's somewhere in between those two numbers But you know some attendees they have not really assigned their tickets to the right people and so it's not really
Clear how many we actually had we have sold over a thousand tickets Sold or registered for the sprints that were free, right? So they were not really sold 648 conference and sprint tickets 350 sprints only tickets, which is a lot more than what we had expected
We were expecting 250 conference and sprint tickets and only maybe 200 sprint only tickets So that was a lot better. Also a number of sponsors were a lot better We had more sponsor income that we had expected and we we actually do have quite a number of people Registered on the discord server. So Friday
653 which is I think quite amazing The bot that we use trucks spot really did an amazing job there to to make that happen And so that we didn't have to manually onboard them Of course, we would like to thank all the the sponsors that we had Especially Microsoft and Bloomberg, but also all the others, of course
They basically made this possible to you know, took away a lot of the financial risk for us So who's making all this happen? Well, we're actually just a very small team. We're a bit bigger actually than At the in-person event, but then if for the in-person event, we usually have people on site who help and
We don't have those in this case. So You know the total number of volunteers that we have for running the conference actually putting everything together at the conference is a lot lower and we put together a Collage of some of the photos that you see here
But of course, these are not all the volunteers, but you know, you can see a couple of people here And I can hear myself twice because it's coming through your audio Okay, sorry about that Let me let me see you can't see anything
Nope, we can hear everything we can see nothing. Okay, now we're good on the audio and we're good on the slide You mean you couldn't see all the slides I just presented or yes. Well, I know we didn't see any of those We just saw this one You mean I forgot to see okay. Anyway
The whole conference with few technical difficulties, I mean, yeah, well, you know, I mean it has to start sometime, right? Okay, so This basically, you know, I told you everything on in audio. So unless you didn't really miss anything So yeah what you see here. These are the the people who made everything happen. Not all of them, you know a subset
And This is the complete list of people who helped to produce your present 2020. It's just 25 people Not really much for a 1000 attendee conference and
What we want to do now is we want to of course give them You know the usual kind of applause that we do normally at the in-person conference everyone comes up to on on the stage now, and then we have a big round of Hand clapping Probably tiring for the attendees, but it's I think it's a good thing So let's try this here in the webinar the way that we have to do this for the webinar is that we basically have to
Highlight every every single volunteer and then make them, you know, present them here in the zoom window And then we will run a round of applause. So Let me stop the screen-sharing again
Like this and then we can go ahead So this is essentially up to you Jason and Martin how you want to run this Right now you want to say anything about each one mark? It might make it go smoother
Okay, so this is ammo You can always read the name. I think down in the in the window and the zoom window But I don't know whether it's shown on YouTube as well so Martin please start the applause. We just keep the applause running. Maybe you can you know, take down the volume of it
This is this is Bruno
This is Camilla, this is lies
This is shook. This is Sylvia. This is son
This is Martin
This is Nicholas
Are we done yeah, I can't highlight myself mark, I don't have
Right, so let's give let's give you applause as well. So you can you show your webcam
Okay, we go back to the start slide yes, of course I can go back let me just search this time
I'm actually gonna share my screen Let me do that. So let's go back to Come back to the starts. This is sorry. This is the starts page
Some people really want to know about the code of conduct cases whether we have any There is a slide for this I'm going to come to that I just want to say before we move on. I just want to say that thank you very much to the entire team This has been a really amazing
experience and Well, it's been a pleasure Right. So let's let's move on So, of course, we're going to have a conference next year, right? So next year is going to be your path in 2021 and
We need some help and the way that you can sign up for for helping Hopefully we're going to make this an in-person conference. So it's going to be you know, we can actually have beers together We can have an organizer dinner. We can do lots of things in Dublin Is by, you know writing to board at europe.io and telling us where you want to help
There's definitely enough to do So we really appreciate that. This is the slide for the code of conduct issues So we have zero reported conduct issues for inappropriate behavior. We have zero reported communication issues Speakers, can we get applause for that? I mean seriously
That is fantastic Martin So, thank you very much to the attendees, you did an excellent job as well
Feels like at the conference Are there finger sandwiches now? Can I have something to eat from the conference? Fe is open Okay, so let's move on to your path in society as you may know is the organization behind this
We are a non-profit organization all the profit that we make from these conferences goes towards the european European Python community We support conferences and projects you can apply for grants you go to the grants page that we have and then
We are gonna you know help you Running your conference We will Probably if you want to do something online come to us ask us we have lots of experience now We want to share that experience because it's you know would be useless if we just throw it all away And we want to share this knowledge
But also if you need financial support we can help you with that as well You can come become member of that your path in society simply by going to the website signing up And then we have to vote you in which we usually do and then you are a member This is the current european society board at Regular conferences in person conferences. We have the general assembly at the conference at the european conference
But this year it was just too much work. So we just dropped it. We're going to have it afterwards So you see here anders, uh reco Serbia stefan martin and myself. Those are the Current society board members. We also had angel and jacob on the board, but they stepped down
after we switched to the online event We are going to have the general assembly in a few weeks I know sometime in august maybe end of august or something We have to see um, like I said You can sign up and then if you sign up and you're voted in then you can vote at that general assembly
The general assembly itself. Well, it's rather boring Must admit I mean, there's nothing we can do about it because the the agenda of the general assembly is actually hard-coded into our bylaws So it's difficult to make a fun event Right, so we loved having you normally would say have a good trip home in this case
I think we should say stay safe and healthy And see you again next year for european 2021. You can already Mark the dates. I didn't put them here on the slide. The dates are july 26th to august 1st
It's we most definitely going to happen in dublin because we are we have a contractual obligation now to do it there in that week So we're going to do everything that we can Please spread the word about the conference whether you liked it or not And if you liked it, then perhaps also bring your friends if you come to dublin Ireland is a fantastic place to do vacation. It's a fantastic time around
You know, the the time of year is fantastic to to come to ireland to travel around a bit So you can stay longer And it's definitely going to be enjoyable Right, so now it's party time
Actually, I'm going to set my answer a few questions maybe before we do this so let me just go through the questions I have seen a setup.py that means uh, we can package and distribute. Oh, those are some old questions There's a glitch with this room, but i've got the latest questions here
So one person said was this online conference satisfying for the team. Are there any disasters? The only disaster that was that the the first keynote, uh, where Basically we you know, it's a bit, you know, embarrassing that the first talk is a no-show and But I think we we managed quite well
By having it today in the dinner at the dinner time So that was fine And you know, we kind of um glossed it over a bit. Uh, so I think that that was good That was pretty much the only disaster. Let's call it We just had a couple of you know, the usual little fires that we were pretty good about putting those out with our coats
Yeah, I mean, you know, you always have these small little issues that you know, maybe you know Like screen sharing doesn't work like what I just had or what Mark Smith had in the in the session um Or you know audio issues sometimes We had relatively few internet issues
Um, which is which is good We had a few issues with youtube the stream sometimes not working Uh But that was more, you know connectivity between zoom and youtube because we are not really in that loop And so we just sometimes had to restart it
Right james said we had a lightning talks also had less issues I think yeah lightning talks went really well But we have a good technology now and there's bought this uh this device for doing the lightning talks at the in-person conference So it's much easier now Uh, johnny wants to know if the discord server is going to be archived because we had loads of good discussions
It's it's definitely going to stay online for you know The next couple of months what we're going to do with it whether we can archive it maybe put it somewhere Um, I don't know how that works. Uh, you can probably tell us better. Jason. So We what we want to do probably Everybody like nobody can message anymore, uh, except maybe only the administrators or something like that
And it could just stay there for people to come back to check stuff If we can make it read only and we can be you know, relatively sure that it will stay up Otherwise, maybe we should find some way to you know I don't know archive it in some sense like, you know archive.org or something
Right another board to grab all the messages Yeah, something like that so that because there's there's a lot of content on the on the discord server now Lots of lots of references and things Uh, which we do want to save um We still have to do some discussion how we're going to do that
So it's not really clear yet. But this is in you know, we intend to keep everything that we can up online Right. So, uh, this is the best time in ireland says namrata beautiful and sunny join us next year here Yeah, definitely We're going to try to do that Um, and then james is suggesting a python script to scrape discord
It might actually work, you know, at least, you know, read all the content using the api The discord api is quite capable and it's easy to use so You know if you want to play with bots, I think discord is a perfect way to to get into bots. Um,
It's really nice. So let's come back to the um to the slide Is it still showing? Yeah. Yeah, it's been showing this whole time. That's all right Uh, so now it's party time Uh, we have a party hall channel. It's called in discord. Uh, we should probably all mingle there and then
at um At 21 30 that's eight minutes in the past We are going to start the word parole, uh in the microsoft track And then after that we're going to do karaoke talks in the microsoft track as well I just tried one of these karaoke talks for the d-wave talk. That was a lot of fun Um because the speaker was 15 minutes too late so
I enjoyed that. Yes. So yeah, thank you again. Bye. Bye. See you tomorrow Thank you very much
