Chairs, PC members, shepherds, authors, and EuroPLoP attendees use the system.

Users can create an account which they can use over several years for all EuroPLoP conferences. User do not have to create a new account every year.

Users who take on different roles (attendee, author, shepherd, PC member, chair, either in one year or over several years) still have only one account, which will be used for both submissions and reviews on the one hand and conference registration on the other.

Users register and log in with their email address.

Users can change their email address.

Internally, an id is created for each user so that user accounts can be used over several years, even if the user's email address changes.

Access to the system is password-protected.

Users can change their passwords.
