Looks good to me. > - is there a CFP date? abstract date? final copy date? http://europython.eu/talks/cfp/ > - any guidelines on paper format or length? See the cfp. > what is your acceptance rate?

Yes. > - do you have any special hotel rates? which hotels do people usually stay > in? There is an accommodation page on europython.eu (needs a little updating). > and how to book them from the US?
