Refine events strategy in Confluence/Notion and submit CFP

[astrojuanlu]

Potentially interesting events:

• All PyData conferences (and also local meetups when appropriate)
• Some PyCon and EuroPython events (whenever there's a sufficiently large audience of data scientists, or the event is big)
• Open Data Science Conference
• Other: AI Summit, JupyterCon, WebSummit, Grace Hopper Celebration, QCon, OSCON?, FOSDEM?, OSCAFEST?

Bottom line: meet our users where they are.

All the events I mentioned above are (at least primarily) in-person events. But we could select some fully online or hybrid events as well. For example:

• Big Data Technology Warsaw Summit

On the other hand, we'd need an event & CFP calendar so that we can plan accordingly.

Upcoming:

• March 9 - Big Data Technology Warsaw Summit
• March 13 - PyData London CFP deadline
• March 18 - PyCon Lithuania CFP deadline
• April 17 - PyCon.DE & PyData Berlin
• May - JupyterCon in Paris and PyCon & PyData Lithuania
• June - PyData London

Let's keep this in the upcoming sprint and use the time to create an internal tracker for conferences/events and our planning around them.
