This talk covers key issues Python programmers run into when naming new projects. We'll go over the following:

* Commonly used naming schemas in the Python community
* Current and past project names (including those that many newcomers to Python struggle with)
* Techniques to avoid similar confusion in the future (covering both name selection and documentation)

We'll even talk about Monty Python and its long-term impact on the Python programming language.

A Python conference north of the Golden Gate


North Bay Python is a single-track conference with a carefully curated set of talks representing the diverse Python community and their different areas of interest.

If a topic is less to your interest, or you've met some people you really want to sit down and chat with, we'll have plenty of areas away from the main theatre to catch up and chat.

Our goal is to keep prices as low as possible. That means we won't be catering lunch. Instead, you can look forward to extra-long lunch breaks you can use to explore all of the great food options around the venue.
