A.5 Conferences

While most Python communications happen electronically, the PSA also organizes periodic conferences. These conferences are the only forum where many folks get to meet their email colleagues.^[B] They're also an important forum for presenting new work, learning about aspects of Python by attending tutorials and talks, and a place for discussions on the future directions of Python. Information about the conferences is regularly posted on the newsgroup as well as displayed on the main Python web site. Locations of past conferences have included Washington, DC; San Jose and Livermore, CA; and Houston, TX.
