After a bit of work, the reflector is running: let's call it a beta version. Let me know if you have problems. If you twitter and start your post '@europython', the rest of the post should get reflected to all followers of twitter europython as it should be more useful now, I've re-instated the twitter link from http://europython.eu Also I've made few updates to the twitter account, including the picture and background.
