Welcome to the Confluence wiki!

Here is the discussion on how to automate various conference all around the world. Our primary focus is right now on automating PyCon India & PyDelhi Conference. We'll be trying to make this as generic as possible so that all other conference would be able to use this.

Raw notes

• Automate as much as possible:

  • As soon as the talks get selected:
    • Volunteers assigned get an automated mail introducing them to speakers and their team members.
    • Speakers get an automated mail that their talk has been selected.
  • Schedule announcement: json schedule - Website & App use this json
  • Automated mail sending before conference to attendees & Speakers along with their timing and hall no.
  • Feedback
  • MoM,

• Work Assignment -- Trello

• Standup --partially done -- https://github.com/CuriousLearner/standup

• TDD

• Junction -- improve

• Volunteers management

• Lightening Talks registration, selection -- Akkshay

  • Register through conference app / website through REST API
  • FCFS talk selection; Select talk with buffer and send mails.
  • Volunteer can override that setting.
  • Submit your slides -- provide it later on a single laptop.

• Registration via mobiles, distribution of swags -- QR Mobile app -- Akkshay

• Social Media -- Twitter & Fb API one click share

• Section for social media things so that people are updated with tweets and blogs.

Tech Stack: Django + MySQL + Celery

RESTful API + Logging

Registration + auth - Volunteers + Users + Speakers - permission

MailSender - templates - volunteers, users, speakers Talks -- Junction SocialMedia -- One Click post - Most volunteers can post to the queue. - One single lead volunteer can approve and then it would be posted. Lightening Talks
