Subject: Your DjangoCon Workshop proposal
Hello ,
Firstly, I would like to apologise for how long we took to get back to you. We received so many workshop proposals that the scheduling took longer than we expected
We'd love to run your workshop at the conference, and we have been able to give you a slot for it.
Can you send us a black and white photograph for the website please?

| The 2015 edition of DjangoCon Europe, the biggest event in the international Django community’s calendar, will be held in Cardiff (Wales) 2nd-7th June. | |
| <http://2015.djangocon.eu> | |
| We’re putting a huge emphasis on diversity and accessibility at this event, to encourage more women and members of other minorities in the field to attend and submit proposals for talks. | |
| <http://2015.djangocon.eu/welcome/diversity/> | |
| <http://2015.djangocon.eu/welcome/accessibility/> | |
| We’ve also taken the unusual step of opening registration only to members of under-represented groups for the first month: <http://2015.djangocon.eu/news/registration-opens/>. |
| Rules for using technical words in documentation | |
| ------------------------------------------------ | |
| There should be one consistent way of rendering any technical word. Please follow these rules: | |
| In general use, simply use the word as if it were any ordinary word, with no capitalisation or | |
| highlighting: "Your placeholder can now be used." | |
| At the start of sentences or titles, capitalise in the usual way: "Placeholder management guide". |
