Do you get an error message or what happens when you click the link? It works for me. Thanks for your feedback!
Its all good now
Switched to chrome and i am good now.
My firefox was having lookup issues "Firefox can't find the server at www.capetown2015.drupalcamp.co.za.". Its probably a problem with my settings.
Thanks, i can see the site now.
No www
Hey dcmul,
Yup, there's no www in there:
Right one: http://capetown2015.drupalcamp.co.za/
Wrong one: http://www.capetown2015.drupalcamp.co.za/
Browsers keep hiding stuff from us to make things more "friendly". I was working on our Ansible Firefox role the other day, these are some settings that may help. Go to about:config in your URL bar to change them:
works
Worked like a charm.
Thank you Riaan
Pre-Camp Get-Together
Hello Everyone,
Man, I'm looking forward to this Camp! Organisation looks amazing and as a visitor, one among a group from Johannesburg, I can just sit back and enjoy what will be our best camp yet. Well, I'm guessing there will be a few things for us to do ;-)
We're planning a get-together the night before at the hotel and you are all welcome to come say hello. It won't go late, we want to be fresh for the next day.
At City Lodge Victoria and Alfred Waterfront from 18:00 on Thursday the 3rd of September.
Kind regards,
Riaan
Post-Camp Get-together
Thank you Riaan, I'm also very excited!
We're in the process of organising the last bits and pieces and hope we can meet your expectations :)
I unfortunately will not be able to join the pre-camp meetup. However, with regards to the post-camp party, we have reserved space in a bar near the camp venue where everyone who doesn't want the day to end too early can come for some food and drinks. So hopefully you and all visitors coming from Johannesburg and Durban will join us there.
Kind regards, Dania
I'm there!
Hey Dania,
I definitely won't want the day to end ;-)
There aren't any late night flights to Johannesburg, so I'm guessing you'll see all of us there and in a way more relaxed state than you usually find Johannesburgers ;-)
Cheers,
Riaan
