Method__: It's $350. We are a small volunteer org and do not have many sponsorships. Price includes two full days of tutorials (not just Plone, also Pyramid, JS and other. You can pick). Everyone pays, even organizers.

x58: well, though the conference is mainly about Plone, we know that many web problems are not CMS sized, so presenting any web technologies that can complement a CMS would be nice (for example, Pyramid is great for JS APIs or React/Angular frontends). Also, tools that developers use everyday, like git, or devops related stuff could be covered too. Form the email the committee is sending out: "All Python web frameworks and web technologies
are fair game - we're really hoping to put on an event that stimulates a lot of sharing and cross pollination."

Mind if I PM you cguardia ?
cguardia
x58: go ahead

Are you going?
stevepie_

stevepie_
