Hi Fred, I was a part of IBM Supercomputing Team for last 5 Years and very recently moved to Cray :). If few students are interested, I can run a show on HPC live practice using open source software.

Not sure if this is really the problem or not. I have however found another bug which I just fixed and which should solve all the issues we've been having so far. Apologies again for the bug, and please let us know if you're having any more issues. Thank you. Fred

by Frederic Muller - DFF

Hi! Yes it is the right place. It seems we're having a few errors this year and we're investigating. The é is not an issue at all and at this stage I can't say why it is not working (still troubleshooting). You can either wait a bit or send me the data you insert in the form to my email so I can set you up. Thanks a lot for your patience in the matter.

Problem registering Mexican team "Gultij"

by Octavio Alvarez

Hi again. I need help registering a Mexican team. I'm getting an Internal Server Error on form submission. It could have something to do with the name of México having an accented e. Trying "México/Tijuana/Gultij" as the submitted Wiki URL gives me back an Internal Server Error. Trying "M%C3%A9xico/Tijuana/Gultij" as the submitted Wiki URL says that the Wiki page can't be found. Is this the right place for this matter? Best regards and thank you in advance.
