This is Tom (@tveastman) here, and I am incredibly happy to tell you that #KiwiPyCon 2024 is on! More details soon.
Through my work on Beeware, Python 3.13 will officially support iOS and Android without any additional plugins. Whoo! @freakboy3742 #kiwipycon
Important announcement!
The final day to purchase tickets to #KiwiPyCon will be Monday 12 August in NZ.
I'd really appreciate you letting your respective networks know because it'd be heartbreaking if someone misses out because they didn't know in time.
Five days left to get #KiwiPyCon tickets!
The most heartbreaking thing will be if people who would have wanted to come don't hear about it in time, and social media has limited reach these days, so tell the people you know who you think might be interested!
It's the final day(s) of the #KiwiPyCon CFP! You have until the end of the 23rd anywhere on earth. That's just under 38 hours away!
We'd love to host you here in Wellington this August! Get your talk submissions in!
(please re-share for reach!)
Two years ago, at #KiwiPyCon, I gave an hour-long talk that aimed to show how #Python's design decisions as a piece of technology shaped the governance that's grown up around our community, making Python the massively successful tool it is.
It's one of the best pieces of writing I've done.
I'm thinking a lot about that message today, and how a lot of our community would do well to reflect on it. Watch it, share it. It's worth it :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCgzTWrwzxs

Kiwi PyCon XIII is shaping up to be the best one yet!
Now, the goal is for us to put together the best programme of talks we’ve ever had at a Kiwi PyCon, and that’s where all of you come in!
This is a post about our CFP, and why we want you submit a talk proposal :-)
Oh: "this command pulls in all the despondencies" #KiwiPyCon
