[EuroPython] Talk voting is now open

[info at pycon.it]

We are pleased to announce that the [community talk
voting](https://ep2012.europython.eu/talk-voting) is now open, and will last
until Sunday, 23:59:59 CEST

As you know, EuroPython is a conference made _by_ the Python community _for_
the Python community. This is the basic principle that we respect and that
makes us believe that the best way to select and filter the 200+ proposals we
received is through a public voting process.

We feel that the Python community is nowadays so diverse and rich that a small
group of organizers cannot fully represent it in choosing the talks. At the
same time, we want to make sure that only actual EuroPython participants will
be able to select the talks to prevent abuses, and this is why we will give
access to talk voting only to people that [buy a
ticket](https://ep2012.europython.eu/registration).

## A few suggestions on voting

With over 200 proposals among talks,
[trainings](https://ep2012.europython.eu/trainings), and
[posters](https://ep2012.europython.eu/poster-session), voting will take some
time.

Make sure to take your time to analyze the proposals and express your
preference. We offer several different filters to help you wade through the
proposals, including a complete tag taxonomy that has been manually reviewed
and refined by our talk manager Lorenzo.

If you have some questions on a proposal, you will be abel to leave a comment
to the speaker: he/she will receive it in the mailbox and will hopefully
answer you and clarify the abstract for everybody else.

Happy voting!
