Robin is quite literally a pillar of open source, and if you have a moment and a dollar, she could use your help 💜

I would absolutely **hate** it if we got a bunch of last minute submissions for #PyConAU.
Absolutely the worst.
https://2026.pycon.org.au/cfp
Especially if it's in the next few hours, before the deadline later tonight, Queensland time.
#SubmitEarlySubmitOften
Having a few dozen more talks to review? Oh noooo.

It's the weekend in Australia. Do you know where your #pyconau proposal is?
Mine is submitted in pretalx ✨
You have two weeks left to do the same! https://2026.pycon.org.au/cfp/
Need ideas and other help? Check out the CFP Workshops running online and in person in a city (hopefully) near you!

Do come along, ask questions, and try your hand at proposal writing!
Other workshops incl. online: https://2026.pycon.org.au/cfp/workshops/

Sunday (in a public holiday long weekend for some) is a great time to submit a talk for #pyconau

@benno @abstractcode
(hi! previous pyconau organiser here)
Yup, we've had some of these issues before, and posted about it https://2019.pycon-au.org/news/inclusivity-and-political-statements/ with specific actions the 2019 team would take (like Benno said)
I'm glad to see proactive information and useful action items for potential speakers from the 2026 team, and it's definitely a good reminder about how to use humour for positive outcomes.

The CFP is also open through the end of March including for the inaugural #devrel track!
Submit early, submit often!

I love how this message from the #pyconau organisers is being emphasized and re-emphasized daily.
Slide reads:
We don't do that here
We don't trash talk other communities.
We don't assume anyone is not a programmer.
We don't make jokes at the expense of others.
