That is a really good point! I've heard good things about EuroPython, too. Maybe I'll try to go in 2010; my company usually sends me to one conference a year, but since I have to miss US Pycon, maybe I can successfully pitch EuroPython. Maybe if I offer to pay the difference in airfare between Atlanta and wherever EP ends up being. Hmmm.... would be cool to meet up with a different bunch of Pythonistas (although some people go to both).
