Signups and topic submissions are now open for the Language Summit at EuroPython in Kraków!

https://ep2026.europython.eu/language-summit/

The Python Language Summit is an event for the developers of Python implementations (CPython, PyPy, MicroPython, GraalPython, IronPython, and so on) to share information, discuss our shared problems, and — hopefully — solve them.
