Partners Sep 1, 2005

I'm taking my English boyfriend with me (speaks very little Polish). And I was wondering whether there are any activities planned for partners. I notices, quite a number of us bring their other halves. Is anything mentioned in the conference programme? Have I missed something? Or should we just hope they organise themselves to go sightseeing etc. in Kraków?

Regards,
Agnieszka

List of registrants Sep 29, 2005

I am checking the conference page now and then to see who else has signed up, but I never manage to find who are the new people. It seems that the listing always changes, even the existing persons are always in different order, so it's basically impossible to find out who else has joined the party. Could we have people listed in the order they register?

It's great that the number of registrations is already greater than for the Oxford conference last year but I have to say that the event is not particularly obvious on the site.
Surely it justifies a promotional box on the home page, doesn't it?

Hi, I see it and will try to fix it. Actually, as session "owner" you should be able to edit it... I will contact you in private about that.

You should be able to sign up for each session using "Sign up to attend this session" link which appears on every session page. Doesn't it work for you?

Hotel difficulties Oct 6, 2005

Hi Magda,
I'm having a bit of a problem with the hotel - they want me to fax credit card details and authorization to debit my card: I'm afraid I'm not happy with that and they have not replied to my latest message.
Have you or any of the others any suggestions?
Thanks
Angela

Giuliana and me we had a lot of problems with the hotel and we had to call them several times to make sure our reservation was registered (our reservation caused quite a lot of difficulties to them, because we decided to stay a bit longer than the conference). We refused to send credit card details, also because they state in their conditions that details are only required for arrivals after 18.00 and we arrive in the morning.

Giuliana and me we had a lot of problems with the hotel and we had to call them several times to make sure our reservation was registered (our reservation caused quite a lot of difficulties to them, because we decided to stay a bit longer than the conference). We refused to send credit card details, also because they state in their conditions that details are only required for arrivals after 18.00 and we arrive in the morning. After 3 weeks and a never-ending e-mail-story we finally got our confirmation. So I would suggest you to insist sending messages to Ms. Monika Krol. ▲ Collapse

Scary Oct 6, 2005

Although there's already enough misery in this world, I've decided to get in line with most other participants and upload my pic. Hope this won't scare off too many new registrants, though.
