Well, this morning I solved both problems. The lack of acknowledgement was because I'd failed to fill in a required field and on submit I got the page back again but, as a recall, the required field error message was in the visible portion of the browser window. I submitted my talk by supplied a new picture of myself (which was a copy of the old one that appeared on the submission form). best regards Jonathan From paul at boddie.org.uk Sat May 1 16:46:50 2010 From: paul at boddie.org.uk (Paul Boddie) Date: Sat, 1 May 2010 16:46:50 +0200 Subject: [EuroPython] FYI: Talk submission fails with server error.

I can see a potential source of confusion now: maybe problems with a field lower down in the form were overlooked because there isn't a general error notification at the top of the form, only per-field notifications. > I submitted my talk by supplied a new picture of myself (which was a > copy of the old one that appeared on the submission form). Good to hear that you figured it out in the end. Thanks for reporting your success!

The two crucial questions: 1. Did you get a page thanking you for your talk and telling you that it had sent you a mail? 2. Did you receive a mail? ;-) If the answer to the first question is "no", it's possible that the talk submissions system didn't tell you noticeably enough about something it didn't like about your submission. It's obviously unfortunate that a misunderstanding was thereby created, but I think the talks/schedule organisers are happy to accept submissions that are sent again. If the answer to the second question is "no", but was "yes" for the first question, it is hopefully the case that your submission has been registered, but someone will have to confirm this. Paul P.S. I did make some semi-unauthorised changes to the submissions system to make error messages more noticeable, but I don't have the Django "mojo" to start re-architecting the code, sadly.

BTW, "Muddle, inventing a build sys" and "KBUS:A simple messaging system" were both accepted.

Message-ID: Hello Europythoneers, while researching presentation technolgy, I stumbled upon JessyInk. JessyInk is some extension, programmed in Python, to Inkscape; to create .SVG -Files which are presentations. It was rightfully compared to prezi, but is a) using standard as SVG and Javascript, is b) created in Python and c) available under an open source licence. Since some days I am in contact with Hannes Hochreiner, the initial and lead developer of JessyInk. I asked him about his willingness to give a presentation about this fascinating technologie; especially about extending Inkscape via Python. Today he was able to offer to give a talk on either monday or tuesday of EuroPython (as he was able to arrange with his employer) I know, it is to late, talks are allready scheduled, and he would only be available to be scheduled on 2 of the 3 days. On the other hand I know that in all the previous EP there were some ... after closing cancelation of talks by their offerers. So my question to all EuroPythoneers and especially the schedulers: Are we interested in having Hannes "slip in" somewhere on monday or tuesday; or shall I negotiate with him to come to Florence in 2011?

They were very helpful and cooperative, real pleasure to deal with. John sent me an official invitation by The PyCon UK Society (which you have to put as a receiving party in your application form, by the way). If it helps you in any way, I can give you the list of the documents I filed, just for reference. They don't publish a list of necessary documents at the VAC (as opposed to Schengen-zone embassies), just vague guidelines, which is stupid, because it makes it harder for you to collect them, plus makes it easier for them to refuse clearance by ignoring supplied evidence, etc, and then basically you're paying USD100 to input your fingerprints and other biometrics into some obscure database you have no influence on. But enough ranting, here's the list: - passport (international, of course) - photo - don't forget about the payment - printed application form and appointment confirmation - aviatickets (I bought them at WizzAir by bank transfer, so I just printed out an email and attached a copy of bank transfer order, ???????? ?????????) - europython ticket (email printout) - europython invitation (received from John by paper mail) - europython invoice (also by paper mail, it had signature and seal) - for some reason they refused to accept medical insurance (as Schengen-zone requires) - I am self-employed, so my financial documents (the alleged reason for refusal, although I successfully received Schengen visa with the same documents) were as follows: - ????????? ??? ?????????? ???'???? ??????????????? ?????????? - ????????? ????? ?? ??? ????????? ???????? - ??????? ? ??????????? ???????? ?? ??? One more thing - my friend (Alexey Popravka) filed for a visa last year as well, and was refused for a really ridiculous reason, so we notified John, he probably contacted the authorities about this, and VAC reviewed their decision towards Alexey. But don't let those difficulties discourage you, I think you should try it anyway. Feel free to contact me if you have any further questions. Other than that, I highly recommend asking John Pinner for assistance.
