After the closing session this afternoon, several conferences and community initiatives from around the world were presented on stage ๐โจ
I also had the chance to go on stage to briefly talk about @pycon ๐ฎ๐น and Django on the Med ๐๏ธ

Django 6.1a1 is out ๐ ๐ I'm really happy and proud that database-level delete options for ForeignKey.on_delete (which we implemented during Django on the Med ๐๏ธ ) are one of the highlights of this release ๐ช ๐ค #django #djangoonthemed #sprint #python

Today was Beginners Day at @pycon 2026 ๐
Me and @carlton used the morning to run Django Off The Med: a small @django sprint, far from the sea but with the same spirit of Django on the Med.
Beginners, first-time contributors, and more experienced people worked together on issues and pull requests.
A productive and very nice way to start the conference ๐

Today I'm helping my friend @carlton present his talk "Static Islands, Dynamic Sea" at PyCon Italia 2026.
We've known each other for years through Django, and we're currently co-organising Django on the Med together.
Former @django Fellow, maintainer, and co-host of @Djangocha, Carlton is exploring how typing can add safety where needed while keeping Django's dynamic nature intact.
Hello Mastodon ๐
Django on the Med is here too ๐๏ธ
Weโll use this account to share a bit of what happens during our next three days of Django sprints in Pescara, Italy, from September 23 to 25, 2026.
See you by the Adriatic Sea ๐

i'm very excited about joining #DjangoOnTheMed in september ๐๏ธ ๐ https://djangomed.eu/
looking forward to sprinting, meeting experienced #django contributors and hanging out with the community!
Hey @freakboy3742 I share your concern. ๐
Maybe a format for smaller, local community events could be part of the solution? ๐ก
Have you heard of Django on the Med? ๐๏ธ

#DjangoOnTheMed
@paulox @carlton thank you so much for organizing #DjangoOnTheMed! looking forward to meeting you in pescara ๐๏ธ ๐
Is anyone going to #DjangoOnTheMed from Berlin this year? I am struggling to find a good connection.
Thanks again @felixxm for this Djanhgo 6.1 highlight.
It is great to see that Django on the Med ๐๏ธ has an impact on the Django code
