Hi Dinu, as we mentioned in the email: we've *started work* on the call for participation. We'll have more information available when we announce the call :-) A lot of work still needs to be done, since we're aiming for a new model of organizing EuroPython conferences. Please have some patience.

Hello Jacob :-) I'm currently part of the web team for the EP2014 and have attended EuroPython conferences for the last 4 years. I also helped on the web team for the last couple of PyCon.DE conferences. Thank you for these details from the EPS' point of view. They are much appreciated :-) T
