Hi all,
Shortly after we got the program committee for oSC13 going a couple of months ago Matt started to work on a new web application for registration and proposal submission.
No one was really happy with Indico and other projects appeared not well maintained or would have required major surgery to get the look and feel as well as functionality we were striving for.
The hard work Matt has put into the project is starting to pay off and I am honored to be able to announce the beta testing period of OSEM. OSEM is up and running at https://conference.opensuse.org/osem , please check out the application and take it for a spin.
Note, that any data you enter will be cleared once we go live with the application. The goal is to open registration and proposal submission no later than next week Wednesday. Thus, please test the application and report bugs/issues directly to Matt at matt@incoherent.de
If the calendar selection for the arrival date is not working for you, that is a known issue.
For those that have time, knowledge and interest, you can submit patches to: https://github.com/mbarringer/osem
Some feedback: * Make registering central instead of login. Move login to a corner or something... * Public name - do you mean "nick name"? If so, please just name it that :D * where is all the other information? Is that yet discussed? We need to have that ready before we let people register... Kostas, Stella and other local people need to tell us some of these (food for example - do we provide that? Then people need to sign up. etc). ** food preference ** joining party or not ** what days will you be there
That is covered by the choice of arrival/departure day, is it not?
** do you use conference hotel or not ** join mailing list or not ** etc etc
Looks good, btw, I like the style.
But if these other things we need in registration are not yet discussed we should delay at least until next week Wednesday.

With this, let the testing begin.
Matt, thanks for your hard work it is much appreciated.
