If this is satisfactory to everyone, then that is that. (the thread 
seemed to die quickly)

But if there is a desire to accomplish more ... then it requires some 
organization and effort.
My offer is open ended to do publicity if the group decides to organize 
the beginning of something more formal like an Education Summit.  I am 
glad to help find additional space if need and do press releases, etc.  
Who can work on this?

Who will volunteer to start the grass-roots advocacy and call academics 
around Atlanta and invite them and their students to PyCon and to meet 
with the edu group?
