Unfortunately, due to a RL work conflict that I was unfortunately unable to reschedule despite significant efforts, I am not able to attend the conference this year.
I e-mailed a couple of the organizers to this effect a couple of weeks ago, and have just discovered bounce autoreplies that seem to have landed in my spam box. I don't know why my messages didn't go through when sent, but meh. :(
I am sorry that I won't be able to give my talk on BLP as planned and especially sorry if due to the aforementioned bounces this is the first the organizers are hearing of it. If someone else would like to give a talk on that subject in the timeslot and is chosen by the organizers to do so, he or she should feel free to contact me and I will provide some suggestions.
Have a great conference, everyone. I enjoy Wikimania and I like London very much and I am very sorry that I will not be able to be with all of you enjoying both.

Sorry all, the programming process dragged on as people variously pulled out or were slow to confirm, and then other concerns became more pressing. TheHelpfulOne has just volunteered to make sure all the submissions are marked with the correct status, so should be done soon.

Yes, me too. I guess none of submitters, whose submission was not rejected after first screen got any notification about rejection.

Edward, I had the same question, because I assumed I would be informed one way
or
another. I only found out by coincidence that the programme was
published
and that my submissions were not in the programme. Considering David
and my
cases, you should probably send out a quick rejection notice just to
confirm
this to people. I can't believe David and I were the only ones. Jane Sent from my iPad

Ok, Edward; Otherwise, thanks for the confirmation. The program feels interesting and sure we'll have informal chances to
share
this experience.
All the best.
David.

Hi David,
Afraid so. Everything that's not been accepted into the programme or notified as a backup talk (in case of cancellation) should be
considered
rejected. I thought all of them had been marked as such, but
apparently we
missed some, sorry about that.

Hi, if my proposal of presentation [*] is still in "open" status and
it
isn't in the program, I have to consider that it has been discarded?
Just to confirm it. Thanks.
