I'm still not sure who the intended audience is for the Thursday -- http://2016.pyconuk.org/introduction/ says it's for beginners and non-beginners, but if so I'm not sure why we're marketing it as an introductory day. I've had a couple of people ask me whether they should plan to attend it or not (or in one case, should they send their team or not) and I've not been sure how to respond.
There are also budget implications, since we had only originally planned to have things like Django Girls (where we can get specific sponsorship for a specific thing) on the Thursday.
@evildmp, please could we have a discussion on Slack about this?
