Flock pre-registration closing
by Paul W. Frields
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Pre-registration for the Flock conference (August 2-5 in Kraków) will
close at 1700 UTC (1:00pm US-Eastern, 7:00pm Central Europe) on
Wednesday, 2016-Jul-13.
If you *are* pre-registered, and do not intend to come to Flock,
please email <flock-staff(a)fedoraproject.org> to notify the team.
FAQ
===
Q: What does pre-registration cutoff mean?
A: We will accept attendees for Flock even on the days of the
conference without a registration. However, we need to set a cutoff
point to calculate budget for swag, meals, etc. If you are not
registered to attend Flock before Wednesday, we cannot guarantee
meals, a T-shirt, or the ability to attend evening events.
Q: Can I still attend Flock if I'm not pre-registered?
A: Absolutely. Attendance is free and open even if you're not
pre-registered. You may get, for example, a hand-printed badge, and
you may not get swag. But you are still welcome to attend.
Q: If I didn't pre-register, can I attend social events?
A: The Flock team will try to accommodate everyone, and this has
worked out in the past. However, because some social events are paid
based on the number of pre-registrations, spots cannot be guaranteed
for those who don't pre-register.
Q: If I'm a speaker, should I be pre-registered?
A: Yes, you should be, but *YOU* are responsible for pre-registering.
Visit <https://register.flocktofedora.org> to pre-register before the
deadline! A reminder is also going out to speakers via their mailing
list.
If you have other questions, email <flock-staff(a)fedoraproject.org> and
the friendly Flock staff will do their best to answer.
