[Inpycon] Registrations open

[Anand Balachandran Pillai]

A few issues with the form - sorry if I am coming late on this one.

1. Name => Should be "Full Name"
2. Country => Should be a selection option from a list of countries
 with INDIA as default. This shouldn't be a text input field.

And I don't think we need to elaborate so much on
the lesser chances of getting a T-shirt for on-spot registrations.
This is a part of the ticket print out and it looks odd.
