Registration for PyCon US 2024 is now open. I registered and will be there from Thursday to Sunday.

My trip this year will be shorter than normal because the ridiculous mask policy put in place by @ThePSF. #python

Still looking forward to seeing you all there. :)

ThePSF,
@ThePSF@fosstodon.org avatar

@mkennedy @LauraLangdon @gpshead @webology

Thanks for all the comments and thoughtfulness. We know many people largely aren't masking anymore and that it can be a social impediment. We have committed for this year to masking, and we won't change that, for the reasons mentioned about not wanting to do a “bait and switch” with the policy for people who make plans to attend based on the policy in place when they registered/paid for travel/submitted their CFP proposals. (1/2)

ThePSF,
@ThePSF@fosstodon.org avatar

@mkennedy @LauraLangdon @gpshead @webology

That said, we'll continue assessing the situation (air flow, testing feasibility, etc) and also tracking feedback, and we'll see if testing, or masking just in talks rooms, or other changes make sense for next year.

Thanks for registering & sharing the event, and we're looking forward to seeing you there.

@mkennedy @LauraLangdon @gpshead @webology Thank you Michael! That suggestion is noted and appreciated (and definitely will be in the menu of options we consider for next year's policy.)

We know that the PSF Board’s review of DjangoCon Africa's recent grant application caused concern and disappointment. Here's what happened and how we're working to improve moving forward. https://pyfound.blogspot.com/2023/10/september-october-board-votes.html

@jonafato Hi Jon - We appreciate the follow up here. We’ve been meeting with the pan-African coalition on this and related issues, and we will be reporting out publicly when we have tangible actions/progress to report.
