                    Se sei iscritto a questa lista, vuol dire che il tuo
                    proposal per PyCon Sei è stato accettato:
                    congratulazioni!<br>
                    A nome di tutta l'organizzazione, ti ringrazio per
                    il tuo importante contributo al successo della
                    conferenza.<br>
                    <br>
                    Per qualsiasi domanda relativa al tuo talk, non
                    esitare a contattarmi. (mailto:<a href="mailto:s.federici@pycon.it" target="_blank">s.federici@pycon.it</a>)<br>

                    In caso contrario, ti chiediamo di comunicarcelo
                    quanto prima.<br>
                    Tuttavia, sappi che per noi non è sempre facile
                    modificare e ripianificare la programmazione dei
                    talk.<br>
                    Per cui, richiedi un reschedule solo in caso di
                    estrema necessità e in caso di problemi
                    imprescindibili, in aggiunta a “speciali
