EuroPython Plaza

We have chosen the name "Plaza" for our virtual plaza where all ​EuroPython workgroup members can discuss things which are relevant for everyone.

Please see the EuroPython Plaza page for details.

Workgroup Tools and Communications

  • Mailing lists: All workgroups have a mailing list setup for communication and an @europython.eu email alias to the mailing list. Please see the WG pages for details.
  • Instant Messaging: For quick questions and coordination, all workgroups have a Telegram group. There's also one for all all WG members: ​EuroPython Plaza Telegram Group (this is an invite link to the group)
  • Voting: We have setup a private ​Loomio group called ​EuroPython Workgroups.
    In order to get invited to this group and the subgroups relevant to you, please contact the Communications WG.
  • Organizing work: We have set up a ​EuroPython Trello organization with boards for each WG.
    In order to get invited to the organization and boards relevant to you, please contact the Communications WG.

Wiki Conventions

To keep the wiki readable and usable, please follow some conventions when naming pages:

  • Please use ["Page names in quotes"] when possible, not the usual WikiPageName naming conventions. This results in more readable pages and enables automatic linking when using the page name on other pages. In the wysiwyg editor, you can achieve the same by entering "Page names in quotes" in the link URL dialog box.
  • Escape automatic wiki page links using !WikiPageName or remove the links using the wysiwyg editor.
  • Create sub pages for workgroups using slashes in the name, e.g. "Web WG/Website Hosting Setup".

For more information about Trac wikis, please refer to the Default Trac Start Page.

Wiki Administration

If you have requests for changes to the wiki, your accounts, etc., please email one of the wiki admins or the Admin WG:

  • Wiki Admins <wiki-admins@…> (generic address)
