This repository is a fork from scipy/scipy_proceedings.

Papers are formatted using reStructuredText and the compiled version should be no longer than 7 pages, including figures. Here are the steps to produce a paper:

• Fork the scipy_proceedings repository on GitHub.

• An example paper is provided in papers/00_vanderwalt. Create a new directory papers/firstname_surname, copy the example paper into it, and modify to your liking.

• Run ./make_paper.sh papers/firstname_surname to compile your paper to PDF (requires LaTeX, docutils, Python--see below). The output appears in output/firstname_surname/paper.pdf.

• Once you are ready to submit your paper, file a pull request on GitHub.

• Please do not modify any files outside of your paper directory.

Pull requests are to be submitted by September 30th, but modifications are allowed during the review period.
