Hi all,
The plans for Kiwi PyCon are coming together nicely and we're aiming to
have the website ready by the end of this month. As is the age old
adage, though, 'many hands make light work' and so we'd like to put a
shout out to the list to anyone who can assist in implementing a nice
design for the site. We're currently going with the winner of the logo
survey[1] for the logo itself but will look at updating this to
accommodate all the responses to the survey after the site is live. At
this stage we just wanna get a 'prettier' site up so we can advertise
the event to the masses.
Some details about the site (from Marek, who has implemented the current
placeholder site[2]):

However, here it finally is:
http://bitbucket.org/vshivak/kiwipycon/Quick Intro & State:
- In case you don't have Mercurial installed run: easy_install Mercurial
- To find out how to get it up and running please read README at
http://bitbucket.org/vshivak/kiwipycon/src/tip/README- Currently site serves the base template which is what you can see at
nz.pycon.org now.
- I added project/kiwipycon app (empty views and models) where we can
start implementing site's functionality.
- I made the repo public, because there isn't anything secret there
that would make me to hide it from public. When we move the final site
to production we will switch it to PostgreSQL database so the private
data will be safely stored there. You can find currect superuser
credentials in one of the first commit messages.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Also, please let me know if you want to have push rights to the
repository.
My plan is to start adding models into kiwipycon app and start
building simple view for talk submissions.
Cheers,
Marek

So if you can help out, please drop a note to the list and lets get
collaborating. Once again our proposed go-live date is end of this
month, i.e. 31 May. Feel free to also jump into #nzpug and ask some
questions as we all pretty much hang out there anyway.
Thanks!
-Tim
