We're sorry but the hotel rooms are currently sold out. We've now disabled them 
in the cart.

We are working on this with the hotel, and with nearby hotels. We will see what 
we can do. Mediterraneo has been promising us additional rooms for quite some 
time, but they ended up not being available on the 2nd and 3rd of July, which 
makes them far less acceptable for us (given that we take the whole risk of not 
selling them).

Hotel reservations are a fluid process, rooms get continuously booked and 
canceled, and hotels like Mediterraneo basically manage to win the system by 
having high levels of (potential) overbooking; we will see what this week and 
the next brings us. It's also the first time ever that we sell rooms directly 
on our website (I don't think PyCon US has been doing it either), so we're 
learning lots of things in the process, in the way you need to discuss this 
with hotels :)

Not that I know of, having a "passive" wiki didn't work out too well last year. 
You can try on this mailing-list, or if you use twitter and you mention 
@europython, we will retweet it to give it more visibility.

Fixed, thanks!
