International Cooperation in the Python Community
summary
Practical ways to support international Python communities are described, including moderating forums, organizing local meetups and workshops (e.g. Django Girls), running multi-day sprints to fix bugs or add features, and translating documentation; these coordinated actions have produced large portions of core docs translated. The talk outlines Python Software Foundation membership levels and PSF workgroups as entry points, and gives operational examples such as the Python en Español Discord and how volunteer coordination made Python Brasil 2020 succeed online using Discord channels.
