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. Thanks and Regards Manmohan On 28-Aug-2015 8:41 pm, "Frederic Muller - DFF" < fred(a)digitalfreedomfoundation.org> wrote: Hi! That sounds like a very good idea. Bangalore has always been a very active area in Free Software development with some ups and downs depending on the years to gather with its communities. You could take a look at the SFD wiki previous years as people have organized events and I am sure they would be happy to join again. Likewise I have been a GNOME Foundation members for some time and met people from Bangalore at IBM and Red Hat who would probably be happy to join as well. So I think it's definitely a great place to get an event and reach out to people who would love to hear more about Free Software and its potentials. Please do go ahead!

Problem registering Mexican team "Gultij"
by Octavio Alvarez Aug. 4, 2015

Aug. 4, 2015

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.

Issue with Confirmation
by Mohit Goyal Aug. 3, 2015

Aug. 3, 2015

I had registered my team PULUG for SFD 2014 with wiki link http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/2014/India/Chandigarh/PULUG But i didnt recieve any confirmation mail....but after 2days i saw that mail in my spam box, and when i tried confirming...it threw me an error..... " The registration file you are trying to access doesn't exist. This could be happening because you already activated your registration (most likely) or because the URL you are accessing is invalid. " But on my event map it PULUG is visible but in wrong city. What should i do now? Regards Mohit Goyal
