Hello Finally, I think we have a working usable setup of regcfp at https://registration.guadec.org/. You can actually register and submit papers already if you want. (The test instance I mentioned previously[1] is also still working). I registered and paid a regfee already :-)
Here's a draft announcement of registration. I propose we send this to foundation-announce@ tomorrow, and then make a press release also as soon as possible. --- GUADEC registration open now! The GNOME's project's European Conference takes place this year in Manchester, England between Friday 28th July and Wednesday 2nd August. Please see the website for details: https://2017.guadec.org/ The GUADEC 2017 team would like to announce that registration for the conference is now open. You can register here: https://registration.guadec.org/ We are offering you the chance to book rooms at the University along with your registration. We have reserved a number of rooms already, but if there is high demand we will try to allocate more rooms. The latest we can secure more rooms is 27th March 2017. If you would like a room at the venue but you find that they are already sold out, please contact us by email at guadec-organizat...@gnome.org, including which nights you would like to stay, and we will try to make another allocation of rooms available in early April based on demand. We cannot guarantee you a room but will do our best. We also have a range of hotel rooms reserved, available through Visit Manchester's booking portal: https://aws.passkey.com/go/GUADEC2017 More information about accommodation: https://guadec.org/accommodation The call for papers is open until Friday 23rd April. We will send a separate announcement for this. --- We discussed announcing registration separately from the CfP. I haven't made a draft for the CfP announcement because, other than the dates, we can just adapt last years: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2016-April/msg00030.html OK! Let me know any comments!
