Publicity for the event
by Noufal Ibrahim June 30, 2009

June 30, 2009

Ranganath is putting some more pages on the site. It should be done by the end of today. I'll send a mail out once this is done. After that, we need everyone's help to publicise the event so that we get enough participants. We're hoping to draw in 150-200 people and this won't happen if we don't advertise the event sufficiently. -- ~noufal

Invitations fo Pycon India
by Noufal Ibrahim June 28, 2009

June 28, 2009

(Sorry for cross posting but we need some visibility here) Hello everyone, Our site is live at http://in.pycon.org/2009/ The next thing we need to do is to publicise this event. We're relying on informal channels to get everyone to know about the event. Mailing lists, blogs, tweets what not. Please CC me (noufal@gmail) when you mail any lists that you're on. It would be useful to keep track of how much outreach we have. Mails and invitations from people who have cred on some lists would especially be valued. This can't be a one man thing. The more people who dive into this and do something, the better the event will be. We can keep further discussions of the invitations on the inpycon list. I cross posted so that more people would be aware that we need to publicise this. Thanks -- ~noufal

Changing DNS records and putting the site live.
by Noufal Ibrahim June 27, 2009

June 27, 2009

Ranganath has just copy edited the site and I personally feel it's fine. Can you guys take a look at http://greenchilly.in/2009/ and comment? If there are no objections, I think we can change the DNS records so that in.pycon.org points to greenchilly.in and start off with the publicity. -- ~noufal

activating menus
by Kenneth Gonsalves June 27, 2009

June 27, 2009

hi, to activate menus, you need to go to menu items -> change, select the one you want and tick 'active'. You can also change the order. I am out for the weekend, so I hope I do not have a bunch of panic messages when I am back. Something *will* go wrong because that is the nature of the beast. I must have forgotten something somewhere. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Associate NRC-FOSS http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/

I did some re-organisation, but looking at the IISc logo, I find it is the 200 pixel logo. Our site displays at 120 pixels. So the the only fix is to get a 100 pixel logo from them. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Associate NRC-FOSS http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/
