Re: [SFD-discuss] [SFD-announce] SFD 2015 registration is on!
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Frederic (or other SFD sysadmin): When I register at http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/cgi-bin/register.py I get an error:
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator at webmaster@localhost to inform them of the time this error occurred, and the actions you performed just before this error.
I've tried both with IceWeasel and Chromium, same result on both. I'm trying to register for the Toronto/LibrePlanet team... Posting here because webmaster@localhost is the guy trying to register :) Thanx, - --Bob. http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/2015/Canada/Toronto/LibrePlanet Bob Jonkman <bjonkman@sobac.com> Phone: +1-519-635-9413 SOBAC Microcomputer Services http://sobac.com/sobac/ Software --- Office & Business Automation --- Consulting GnuPG Fngrprnt:04F7 742B 8F54 C40A E115 26C2 B912 89B0 D2CC E5EA On 01/08/15 07:02 AM, Frederic Muller - DFF wrote:
Dear all,
With a bit of delay, the *Digital Freedom Foundation* is very happy to announce that registration of the twelfth edition of Software Freedom Day <http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/> just opened. While the wiki has been ready for some times and a few teams started to create pages registration was another story. In fact our infrastructure needs updates and we still haven't found way to do that easily.
Now as far as Free Software is concerned while we see more projects adopting Free Software licenses we also feel end-users still struggle with their proprietary operating systems. At the same time both hardware and software seems a lot more integrated and in some fields it seems that you can just print something with your Free 3D printers, order some kind of Free Hardware controllers online, flash them, hack them and get a complete and finish product running (or flying, or...). We're involved here with people who had no special interest in Free Software or Hardware and discovered it through pursuing their hobbies, and they just love it!
On the sponsorship side we have unfortunately lost Canonical financially but they are still providing the mailing list infrastructure (snif snif.. they were our first sponsors). Google and Linode are still supporting us luckily and we are exploring new ventures (though nothing confirmed at this stage).
So as usual registration <http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/cgi-bin/register.py> happens after you have created your event page on the wiki <http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/>. We have an exaustive guide here <http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/StartGuide> for newcomers and for the others who need help, the SFD-Discuss mailing <http://mail.sf-day.org/lists/listinfo/sfd-discuss> is probably the best place to get prompt support. As usual we will come back with more details things to do or worth mentioning to bring inspiration and motivation to the celebration on the sfd-discuss mailing list.
So get ready to celebrate and happy preparations to all!
The Digital Freedom Foundation

Weird. Could it be because you enter your wiki URL with the %20 "character" rather than the spaces between words? If so, can you try with normal "spaces" and let us know. If this is the case then it is a definite bug that will need to be fixed ;-) Thank you.
