registration

by Traugott Dew

I am frustrated over this registration. At each stage my pages are passed. The name of my team page appears in the URL as I enterred it http://softwarefreedomday.org/2013/Ghana/Ho Bankoe/GLOSS-Club and yet I am informed to check my URL each time I click the submit button. I tried to localise part of the pages of my entry but it is considered weird! Is that the reason I cannot register my team? Is there any other way out wolako

Just notify you that I associate with my friends to create a new LUG (CotonouLug) in Cotonou, Benin. I have already registered on the SFDweb site. We are actively preparing for the first time SFD in Benin for 21 September. I am happy to belong to this group for the promotion of free software and will be happy to hear from you. Apologies for the quality of my English.

Thanks a lot. Added both languages and specified into brackets which one is which until I get rectified. Well now anyone can edit 2013 anyway... ;-) Fred On 07/21/2013 07:41 PM, Marcos Marado wrote: > PtPt: Adicionar País > > I would bet that PtBr is the same, but you might want to have Brazillian > validation... > > On Jul 21, 2013 9:39 AM, "Frederic Muller - DFF" > <fred(a)digitalfreedomfoundation.org > <mailto:fred@digitalfreedomfoundation.org>> wrote: > > Hi! > > While doing some wiki SFD page "maintenance" such as adding captical > letters, team pages and so on I inadvertently destroyed page 2013... > which means all the current "Add country" in several languages have > disappeared.

Dear Frederic I am Shazedur Rahim Joardar Ring from FOSS Bangladesh. Today, I had added one of the two of our events here in Bangladesh successfully and registered also. But when our PRS (Public Relation Secretary of FOSS Bangladesh) was registering the second event we found the 2013 event wiki pages are not editable. Today is the last day to register SFD 2013 events. So plz do the admin jobs as soon as possible done and let us know when we can register our events.

PtPt: Adicionar País I would bet that PtBr is the same, but you might want to have Brazillian validation...

2013 page screw up

by Frederic Muller - DFF

Hi! While doing some wiki SFD page "maintenance" such as adding captical letters, team pages and so on I inadvertently destroyed page 2013... which means all the current "Add country" in several languages have disappeared. Well we still have 3... Since I am rather handicapped on the language front can people speaking existing available languages listed below step in and provide me the translation here in the email for "Add Country": - Portuguese (PtPt) - Portuguese Brazilian (PtBr) - Russian Maybe Sri Lanka if there are other countries speaking the language... Thanks a lot. Fred

The whole point is to get the data from the browser, you should be able to get things like LocalTime, Language, Vendor, and such. You can script the XML the same way it's done with HTML to display a special twist to the graphic, even make it event aware (for example change colors the closer it gets to the date). > > In fact we are rather busy in preparing to ship goodies, talking to > partners to get attractive prizes for our sfd competition as well as > updating the sfd site (as the version we are using are no longer support > soon).
