PyCon Asia Pacific on June 9-11, 2010
Welcome to PyCon Asia Pacific
9 - 11 June 2010 Ngee Ann Kongsi Auditorium, Singapore Management University
Also available in presentation mode…
PyCon Asia Pacific 2010 represents a conference dedicated to the Python programming language in Asia-Pacific and hosted for the first time in Singapore. As in all PyCon conferences, PyCon Asia Pacific is an independent, community-run, community-controlled and not-for-profit conference. We are encouraged by the country-level initiatives presently. PyCon Asia Pacific will serve as a perfect platform for Python users throughout Asia-Pacific countries to come together to meet with fellow Python users. The same can be said for anyone adopting an exploratory perspective towards Python. It is our hope that different Asia Pacific countries will take turns to host as the momentum of Python develops in this region.
