SciPy 2019 Talk/Proceedings/Sprint

Open ericmjl opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

@szuckerman, @zbarry, and @Zsailer, just wanted to let you both know, I submitted a talk about pyjanitor, and it was accepted at SciPy 2019. I would like to acknowledge your contributions to the library, with a slide that has your photos and preferred names. Would that be alright for you? If so, would you be kind enough to email me your preferred names and a high resolution head-shot, which I could include?

Also, there is an opportunity to submit a paper as part of the SciPy proceedings. I think we have something good in the whitepaper branch that can be submitted. I would like to submit a contribution to there and include all of you on that paper too.

Finally, at SciPy 2019, there's a sprint occurring, and I intend to lead a sprint there. I think @zbarry will be there as well. For the sprint, I'm thinking of structuring it such that participants can either:

  • contribute examples, e.g. markdown files or notebooks (most needed)
  • contribute a new function
  • improve an existing function

Are there particular maintenance pain points that you see that you would like us to focus on?

That's wonderful news. I'm happy to hear that you successfully landed a talk. Congrats!

Right now, I'm planning to be at SciPy, but still working out my travel calender. I'd be representing the Jupyter Team this year, so I'll have responsibilities there. But, I'd love to connect at some point and discuss the project.

I'll send you an email with headshot, etc. soon. Cheers!

Just found out about RISE, a Jupyter extension that will convert your notebook to a presentation. Might be useful for your talk!

@Zsailer @szuckerman @zbarry the paper has been submitted! I took what was in the whitepaper branch and submitted that.

@szuckerman I'm missing your email address. Also, would you prefer to include your affiliation at Audible, or would you prefer to remain independent for this paper?

As for headshots, I think I will simply link to your GitHub profile pics - so no problems there!

Finally, the papers are built via PR to the SciPy proceedings repository, and the built paper can be found here.

Thanks for your major contributions in getting the project up and running. I couldn't have done it alone!
