I don't think is unreasonable at all. Anyone can do a conference wherever, the PSF just don't want to sponsor conferences in places under those conditions

- colpabar 3y agoBut this is exactly like sanctioning a country ruled by an oppressive regime because the regime is oppressive. You're just punishing the people who are already oppressed!
- nomdep 3y agoThere are two positions the PSF can take: 1. Python evangelism is about the tech and is not an endorsement of whoever organize conferences, even if is in nazi Germany. 2. Giving money to a conference IS an endorsement of whoever organize it, so it must comply with the morals of the PSF board and biggest backers. In hindsight, (1) seems more fair, but because the PSF is about politics and not tech, is not surprising they will always choose (2).
