Hello all, We are happy to announce that registration is now opened on http://dconf.org. The conference program this year is very strong, featuring a good mix of talks from the industry and the academia. Please consider joining us for the conference, which we believe will be an inspiring and memorable event. We have sent acceptance notification to all submitters. Following our request for submissions we have gotten an embarrassment of riches - no less than 44, of which we could only select 19 for a packed schedule. We were forced to make difficult decisions because literally all submissions were at or near acceptance level. In some cases we had to reject submissions from long-time contributors, and please understand that it's pained us as much as it may pain anyone. We hope, of course, you will all consider attending the conference nevertheless. Speaking of attendance: seating is limited; if we had more of it we would have branched to two tracks as there was enough material for such. Early Kickstarter contributors have already secured some 30% of the seats, so if you consider joining DConf 2013 please decide sooner rather than later. Spread the word - this will be a heck of a get-together. Hope to see you soon! Walter and Andrei

I just registered. It would seem, though, that since I used my wife's credit card I am registered in her name. There was no way to separate registration information from billing information. My wife will travel to California with me, but she certainly has no interest in attending the conference! What do I need to do to make sure it's in my name?

You're already registered for the conference, since you let me know you're coming.Is there an 'official' way for kickstarter backers to let you know, or simply an informal email? I'm concerned that folks like me who backed on kickstarter, but don't regularly check the lists, may not know if they are officially registered or not. For instance, I do not know if I am registered or not (hence, this email). The communication via kickstarter and conf. website has been vague and conflicting in some cases - a clear, "here's what you do" somewhere would be great. Thanks, Jeremy
