<h2>Introducing Guides and the Attendee Wiki</h2>
<p><span class="date">Tuesday, November 14, 2017</span>&mdash;Today we are launching the <a href="/wiki">Attendee Wiki</a> for North Bay Python 2017 attendees, as well as <a href="/guides">a small pile of guides</a> to help people make the most of their conference experience.</p>
<p>We've sketched out a few key guides, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="/accessibility">Accessibility and Accommodations</a></li>
<li><a href="/emergencies">Emergencies</a></li>
<li><a href="/wiki/fitness">Fitness</a></li>
<li><a href="/attend/transit">Getting Around P'town</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Some of the Wiki pages we've started require community participation to be of any value, in particular:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="/wiki/job-board">Job Board</a></li>
<li><a href="/wiki/meetups">Meetups</a></li>
<li><a href="/wiki/ride-sharing">Ride Sharing</a></li>
</ul>
<p>We'll be sharing more information and launching more guides soon.</p>
