Inclusion and Community in the face of crisis
summary
The Python community faces layered crises but leans on concrete practices: the PSF depends on PyCon US for 60–70% of income and delayed cancellation to avoid a >$500k liability; PyCon US had ~3,500 attendees pre‑COVID and now moves online, letting organizers test many conferencing tools and broaden access. Grassroots projects like autopi.org hook local requests to volunteers via WhatsApp for food and medicine, showing small apps can work where institutions falter.
