Keynote Speaker – Guido van Rossum
summary
A personal retrospective traces PyCon from the first Python Workshop (1994) with about 30 people through the move to annual conferences, Fortec-run IPCs, and the messy creation of the PSF—PSF incorporated 2001—with concrete numbers (membership peaking near 300), logistic lessons (sandwiches ordered three days straight), and financial pivots (surviving the 2008 crisis by running at a loss thanks to PSF reserves and later professional financial staff).
