Change in the process last year Feb 12, 2010

Dear Russell,

This is due to a change in the process that took place late last year. Until last year people could 'pre-register' and pay later and they would appear as 'registrants' on the page. This has been changed with the 'express interest' system and the Birmingham conference was the 'transition' conference as 15 people had already pre-registered befgore the new system was implemented.

Dear Russell,

This is due to a change in the process that took place late last year. Until last year people could 'pre-register' and pay later and they would appear as 'registrants' on the page. This has been changed with the 'express interest' system and the Birmingham conference was the 'transition' conference as 15 people had already pre-registered befgore the new system was implemented.

No one actually registered and paid yet since, as you point out rightly, payment is not opened yet.

The payment interface is still under development and should be ready soon. We will notify you as soon as payment is possible.

Thanks for your patience,

Kind regards,
