 So unfortunately it's that time again, so we need to basically shut down the conference for this year Okay, closing session. It's almost over But not quite So we still have two more days to come actually And there are quite a few sprints registered on the wiki page Page that you see here if you go to that link you can see all the sprints that were registered I wasn't at the sprint orientation session, so I don't know what actually happened there So I just put this slide up here so to remind you So there's still a lot to do in the next two days and of course you invite it to stay We're gonna just have one part of the venue for the sprints So we're gonna basically take down everything else and later on after the closing session I hope that we get some help from you to chat on these things and And prepare everything for tomorrow So I'm gonna pass on to Christian Who's never seen these slides before Thank you, so oh some nice thoughts so we have or we have 1030 attendees from over 50 countries and that's that's also 25 sponsors 400 more than 450 people I think there were 500 people at the social event Yeah, almost I think all of them with pants probably Yeah, and we have this huge Europe Python telegram channel with more than 470 people there Do you like that channel should we continue doing it? Yeah, I think it's a real success we started this as an experiment because we weren't sure whether we can actually handle such a large group on a single channel, but I think it's working out well and and the The group is really helping And it's you're helping each other, which is very good You're passing around information and it's it's really nice to see that We also need to thank our sponsors most of the sponsors have already left the conference But like I said in the opening session Without the sponsors your tickets would be at least 200 euros more expensive for the students They would probably be like something like 500 euros more expensive So without these we we wouldn't be able to do the conference and In fact, it's so that the ticket prices that we have are so low that without sponsors We'd make a minus of about a hundred K each year So these are important if you know someone who wants to sponsor your price and please come to us and please let us know Yeah, also if you work for a company, please sponsor your Python So who is behind all of this? Yeah, me for example mark Yeah, thank you We have a very small team of volunteers So it's you know, it's it's just because we want to have fun and we really like to do this And yes, we run the show in our free time. It's but it's really more than just our free time so you can see all of the your Python team on the website and Yes, this conference was made by them What we of course want to do is we want to give some recognition to the people and so Well, this is a this is the list of the core organizers Those are the 10 people who invested most of it most of the time into the conference Of course, we have more people and so what we're gonna do now like we did last year is we're gonna do a bit a big basically session to Present all the work groups that we have and maybe you find a work that's interesting for you And you might want to help and sign up for that work group. So we're gonna call up all the work groups now It's gonna be funny So the first one's gonna be administration work group, which is So the next one is the finance work group Which is the sponsors work group, which is Sylvia where she this fine lady and this guy The communications work group So Had to leave the conference so she's not here so we actually have one more So Daria Alexander The next one financial aid Daria.

So because there's lots of stuff in there Which needs to go And he's a fine gentleman with the good good drinks and Right give it give them a big hand we have the on-site team Which is Patrick and Mateo Mateo couldn't the next is up is the media team Which is this group as you can see we had to improvise Then we had the code of conduct work group. So that is Daria and Larry The good news here is that we didn't have too much work this year. So Which is oh Yeah, right the support work group. Where's Jill? Yeah This is Jill the chair and this is Mario who is you few probably met on the Virtually met on the help desk and also physically when trying to get some water all these these dispensers So just as just a small data point We already mentioned that in the opening sessions We had thought that we would it would be enough to have eight hundred and fifty liters of water available for the whole week like we did last Year in the bow Now it seems that the bottles that we've given out were so popular that you've been using these these dispensers a lot So we actually had to do 180 liters per day Around that number. And so we had to buy 250 bottles of 80 liters each for the conference, which is amazing Right, so did I skip a slide? No, I now want to call the onsite volunteers So people who helped onsite not before the conference onsite and I would call up I would like to call up all of them. We had 56 volunteers sign up for the volunteer app Which is amazing? So please everyone all the volunteers to sign up Please come to the stage so thanks to these guys that we have session chairs that we have I don't know so many little things that we need to do I mean we need we need help with every little bit that we do at the conference And as you've seen we just have a small team and without these volunteers It literally wouldn't be possible to run the conference. So give them give them a big hand Thank you to y'all So as you can see we do need a bit more help for next year's conference because this year's conference was really exhausting for all of us We'd like to have you consider sign up as work group member what we expect from a work group member and I'm I don't want to basically make it look like it's it's just easy job It's actually at least a hundred hours work that you need to put into this to actually make things happen So if you're willing to do this in the next 12 months Then please go to the website that we have for work groups on the real private society website and sign up for this You've seen all the work groups Plus the support work group, which I forgot to put on the slide So you can sign up in all of these work groups, and then we will try to make things Sort things out. We will tell you what to do we will guide you through the processes that we have to show you where the information is and Essentially make it possible for you to actively contribute to the conference next year So in addition to this We also had two workshops and this should actually be a video running Yeah, this is Okay, it's a bit. It's not really moving that well So as you may know, we had the beginners day Workshop and Harry it was usually doing this unfortunately higher couldn't come because he hadn't planned for the baby nine months in advance and And so We had to find a very quickly find a few volunteers basically stepping in and then Helping to to run the whole workshop and fortunately we found a few people most of the people came from the koala Team and they submitted this video. I guess Libra office could improve a bit upon the video performance, right? Anyway, 16 mentors give them a hand then we had the jungle girls workshop Could the the organizers if they're still here, please come up to the stage. Maybe the trainers No The coaches Yes, some coaches here In any case, I mean it was great So as you can see we had I think 30 ladies sign up to the workshop and They were mentored by these fine folks so give them a hand Okay, code of conduct. I wrench already mentioned this this year was Was a very like say let's the conference didn't have any major issues so we had three communication issues and all of the three issues were basically with sponsors trying to basically spam you and We told them not to and they stopped so that was fine Then we had another an unfortunate Issue which was that we had some cash thefts at the conference so three in total were reported I don't know whether we whether more people got money stolen We're looking into this if you if you are one of those Then please come to us and tell us when it happened because the camera the menu has cameras and so the Security team could possibly then use the cameras to maybe find out or at least get a hint at to where For which person to look to basically do something about this Unfortunately, there's not much we can do except just give the details onto the security team here at the venue Right so some formal things We also had a european society meeting at the conference the european society is the non-profit completely volunteer driven Organization behind european so volunteer driven means that we don't get paid for these things and non-profit means that we We do try to make a profit in order to help the european the european python community but we don't use the profit to do Huge parties and I don't know have a great life do a trip to the Maldives or something So if you want to help if you want to participate in the european society Then you can you just have to sign up on your website, and then we will make you a member So we voted in a new board. This is the old board. We want to thank the old board for their work and We voted in this new board as you can see there are fewer people on that board quite a few people stepped down from last year because private Because of private things so basically personal life changes every now and then and so they couldn't contribute as much anymore So we have a new board now with Jill as the as a new member with Jill Put the new board members. Please come on stage So these are the folks that are Making sure that we have a euro python every year So of course we want to continue doing this So we had 16 your pythons now and we're going to plan start planning right after the conference and start planning the 17th one next year Okay, so there's nothing much left to say we would like to have a bit of help with the teardown So basically what I mentioned we need to move some tables and pack things up There's going to be a teardown after this closing session There's going to be a second teardown on Sunday after the sprints because of course for the sprints We still need some tables So it would be good if you could also if you can if you have time you plan for Sunday afternoon to also help with the chair down there Right, so that's it Yeah, we loved having you a pleasure to have you here.
