Hello all,
I am chair of the SOC for Python in Astronomy 2017, which is scheduled for May 8-12 at the Lorentz Center in Leiden, the Netherlands http://openastronomy.org/pyastro/2017).
I am getting in touch because we would like to start the process of choosing the 2018 venue as soon as possible and, ideally, announce the 2018 location at the upcoming 2017 conference.
If you are interested in hosting the 2018 Python in Astronomy conference and have not already filled out our venue information form, please do so: https://goo.gl/forms/hWkoDPX8KWEwZGUQ2 (Note: if you already filled in this form with 2017 in mind, you will be considered for 2018)
The SOC for 2017 will shortlist some venues and be in touch. We also plan to talk to you or a representative of your venue at the 2017 conference and then announce the 2018 venue at the conference dinner.
Thanks,
Stuart Mumford, on behalf of the Python in Astronomy 2017 SOC.
