[EuroPython] Talk submission problem
Hi, I am trying to submit a talk proposal for EuroPython. I signed up for an account on the CERN thing, and it sent me a confirmation email, and I successfully activated the account and chose a password. Unfortunately, I can't login. I enter my email address and password, and it fails saying "Wrong login or password". I tried filling in the password reminder and it hasn't emailed me anything either. What should I do? Serves me right for waiting until the last day, I suppose...

Well, I'd rather go with Flash and/or Quicktime just because it's the easiest to setup plus you have directly e.g. a community at ustream.tv which would be exposed to something different and (hopefully) interesting to them. Quicktime would be my other choice because unfortunately Second Life only supports Quicktime streaming at the moment and it would be a nice marketing thing to have it streaming there where people can even meet in front of the screen and discuss about what they just see. (we even shortly had some sort of backchannel from the Second Life world into the Plone conference back in September where Martijn Faassen was in-world and asking (more of a fun question though) to the speakers. So for me it actually would be easiest to stream via flash to ustream as this would only involve a network connection (and eventually a network cable as it is more reliable than Wifi). ustream.tv can also record btw and you can download the videos (as flash videos) afterwards so there is maybe even a way of converting it to other formats. As for Quicktime I probably would need somebody to provide a server with good network connection who is willing to install Darwin Streaming Server on it. This might be the bigger problem I assume so I guess I'd go with ustream.tv. I will of course also record some of the stuff and this can be converted to whatever format afterwards (but also here I usually go with quicktime usually for comlounge.tv as it's supported by the most players out there and esp. on the iPod). I am just not sure how much work this converting might involve and if I will have time for that but I can definitely provide the material so any body could actually step in. Ok, as I will bring my camera anyway we can also see then what is possible and what is not. Everything should be setup fairly quickly. cheers, Christian -- Christian Scholz video blog: http://comlounge.tv COM.lounge blog: http://mrtopf.de/blog Luetticher Strasse 10Skype: HerrTopf 52064 Aachen Homepage: http://comlounge.net Tel: +49 241 400 730 0 Fax: +49 241 979 00 850 EMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] IRC: MrTopf on irc.freenode.net, Tao_T on irc.efnet.org Second Life Nick: Tao Takashi Second Life Blog: http://taotakashi.wordpress.com ** neues Blog: http://mrtopf.de/blog ** neuer Podcast: http://mrtopf.de/podcast ___ EuroPython mailing list EuroPython@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/europython

I don't remember how it worked when I registered last year. You may have to e-mail the support address at the bottom of the login page if you haven't received an e-mail message with your details.

Did you choose a user name that's different to your e-mail address? When I login, I use my user name and not my e-mail address.

[EuroPython] Talk submission
Hello, I know I'm terribly late, but I would like to submit a talk, and Indico won't send me a reminder email for my account. I'll try again early tomorrow morning... but just in case, here it is the abstract: A practical example of Test Driven Development for a GUI using wxPython I will show a step by step example of building a small user interface using wxPython. The example will only be marginally related to wxPython itself and, even though previous background won't be necessary, it'll be explained only as much as necessary to understand the rest of the talk. The goal is to show the practice of Test Driven Development. The code will follow the Model View Controller pattern and testing will be making use of mock objects, in order to simulate the View. Thanks! Stefano Masini ___ EuroPython mailing list EuroPython@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/europython

I don't want to say anything I'm not "authorised" to say, but I think it quite likely that we'll extend the period for submitting talks, meaning that everyone who tried to submit talks at the last minute but then experienced account difficulties, or anyone who didn't have time during the week to finish off their proposal can still submit a talk. > we'd like to talk about "high performance zope3". > lovely systems is working on "web2.0 portals" that have pretty heavy > load (peak 250 mbit/s, > 1000 concurrent connections). > i'll talk about the general architecture goals when running "big" > portals based on zope3 (nginx reverse proxies, varnish caches, > memcached, ipvs load balancers,...), strategies to monitor and > improve zope3 settings (z3monitor, zservertracelog, cache > tuning,...), do and don'ts > we'll also release some of our performance-tuning (caching,...) > python packages at this event. Well you've got my attention, anyway. ;-) But unless someone in the talks department decides otherwise, the deadline is likely to be pushed back a few days. We'll bring you some news on this topic tomorrow. > thanks - and sorry for beeing late No problem!
