We are finally opening the registration for the SciPy 2009 conference. It took us time, but the reason is that we made careful budget estimations to bring the registration cost down.
We are very happy to announce that this year registration to the conference will be only $150, sprints $100, and students get half price! We made this effort because we hope it will open up the conference to more people, especially students that often have to finance this trip with little budget. As a consequence, however, catering at noon is not included.
One more question -- how can I actually register for the conference? I went to:
registered and sent the abstract (some time ago already). So today I logged in and clicked "registration":
which says "To register to the conference, create an account on this site and log in. Go to your profile page, you can submit an abstract or register to the conference.", so I clicked on my profile page:
which shows my abstract, but it says "The conference is not yet open for registration.". So how can I pay the conference fees and register?
Well, well. Looks like I did things too quickly, or too jet-lagged. I had forgotten to pull the setting on the server. That's why we where not observing any registration. Thank you for signaling it, I wonder how many people had tried and failed. Gaël
