The Python Steering Council is a 5-person elected committee that assumes a mandate to maintain the quality and stability of the Python language and CPython interpreter, improve the contributor experience, formalize and maintain a relationship between the Python core team and the PSF, establish decision making processes for Python Enhancement Proposals, seek consensus among contributors and the Python core team, and resolve decisions and disputes in decision making among the language. Presented by: Barry Warsaw Donghee Na Gregory P Smith Pablo Galindo Salgado (Steering Council member not present: Emily Morehouse) Python Steering Council - Barry Warsaw, Donghee Na, Gregory P Smith & Pablo Galindo Salgado

#PyConUS recordings continue to go up! One freshly posted session is the annual Steering Council presentation, with updates on Python 3.14 🥧, free threading, and more. As Pablo would say, WOW.

PyBay2025: Call for Speakers PyBay2025 -- our 10th Anniversary!Once again returning to the Mission Bay Conference Center in San Francisco! We are counting on YOU to submit great ...

PyBay CFP is open til June 8th!

The conference is happening October 18th in SF, and it was really great last year.
I just submitted to the CFP, you should too! :)

I am spending much of my Sunday working on my PyCon US 2025 scrapbook -- noting phrases from recap blog posts, social media posts, and my own "overheard" notes throughout the event. It is a joy to see the unique ways people experience the conference and its communities.

Mr. Rogers Had a Simple Set of Rules for Talking to Children The TV legend possessed an extraordinary understanding of how kids make sense of language.

Because I have Mr. Rogers on my mind this week, here is the article I keep mentioning regarding his rules for (what I am reminded is called) "Freddish": web.archive.org/web/20180609.... It's worth a read, even if you've read it before.

Which year was your first PyCon US? Whether it was long ago or currently ongoing, I'd be thrilled to hear your stories about how the conference has inspired you, the friends and coworkers you've met, and what keeps you returning.
