I think we publicly announce it in our next newsflash and add info on the website. I will add the corporate rate as an alternative for the individual registrations. > > > If yes, in what form?

The idea from last year was to make sure there is a slot of time when all booths are manned and up and running. It is not reasonable to ask the exhibitors to keep their booths going throughout the conference. Europython is not a large enough event for this. At ACCU UK, which is a larger and much more expensive conference, the exhibitors are there for 2 of the 4 days. > > > 2 B) I want this because it I would like to have at least 3-4 > > exhibitng sponsors.

Here are instructions for how to handle people in batch: They need to fill in one web page per person. Each person should have their own personal details filled in and each person _must_ have a unique email address. You may fake the email address, in which case you won't get official communications from the Europython conference. If you want to pay using a credit card: After you have filled in the personal details and submitted them, you select the "Defer" option. On the invoice page, you then note down the payment code. When you have entered all the attendees you want to pay for, you proceed to the "Pay multiple invoices" link on the registration page that can be reached from the Europython main webpage. On the page you reach, you enter all the payment codes. You will be redirected to the Worldpay website. After you have paid, you will be returned to the registration site, where you can select and print each of the invoices in the paid batch. Like almost all conference registration software, we generate one invoice per attendee and do not have an alternative with a singe invoice for multiple attendees. If you want to pay by SWIFT/IBAN or directly into the Swedish bank account of the Europython Society: After you have filled in the personal details and submitted them, you select the "Pay by SWIFT/IBAN" option. When reaching the invoice page, print the invoice. When paying, please attach all the payment codes with the payment. If there isn't room enough in the message field, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the details of your payment and all the payment codes that the payment covers. If someone wants to bring a really large number of people - say 15 or more - I can write a script that takes a list of personal data. However, this would eat some of my time, which is a resource which is currently in short supply.
