question about tobacco

I know, smoking is forbidden and thats for a reason. But what about other tobacco products? For example Snus, you only damage yourself and not others.

missing recordings

Andy's talk about "Technical aspects of the surveillance in and around the Ecuadorian embassy in London" is missing. At least I can't find the recording under recordings, relive nor youtube. Does anybody have a copy and would you share / upload it?

Recordings are published acccording to a certain priority. Pls. contact the VOC for further informaion or visit the https://media.ccc.de/c/36c3 page now and then to check for the specific recording. --Wikinaut (talk) 17:40, 28 December 2019 (CET)

Self-organized session spaces

We were just discussing in the #komona.program:matrix.org channel how we update the self organised spaces provided by assemblies: https://events.ccc.de/congress/2019/wiki/index.php/Static:Self-organized_Sessions#Space_provided_by_assemblies Seems no one is sure. Asked by User:Ekes.

I guess your question is how to edit your rooms, right? --Psy (talk) 17:44, 17 December 2019 (CET)

If I understand it correctly the domes/rooms might not correlate exactly to the previous years (that people seemed to think might have been carried over). So edit for capacity facilities and details for how to book, but also add/remove rooms. In addition I've seen the calendar embedded though haven't investigated it, the rooms are in the komona pretalx already does that then need any additional integration here? --Ekes (talk) 00:00, 18 December 2019 (CET)

Self organized session registration

How long does it take that the "wiki engine" knows my just right now added email address? So I can register an S. Org. Sess.? --A-mo-rex (talk) 22:54, 14 December 2019 (CET)

You have to set up your E-Mail address in your Preferences and click on the confirmation link which the wiki has sent to you. --Wikinaut (talk) 23:07, 14 December 2019 (CET)

makes sense... ;-) THX! --A-mo-rex (talk) 23:13, 14 December 2019 (CET)

guru3 (phone) extensions

Do extensions on the guru3 website cost money? They used to be free but I have now received an invoice for claiming an extension. ===

🤦 It's a joke from the eventphone crew. Take a look on the info box on the "presale" page. ;) https://presale.eventphone.de/eventphone/36C3/ "Please claim your extension in GURU3." Extensions are free. --Wikinaut (talk) 00:27, 11 December 2019 (CET)

SOS registrations

I've submitted a SOS called "Finding your new home: immigration to Canada" - However I'm unable to fill up all the details. Could you let me know what I need to do ? Thanks, Aime

sos registration is not yet opened --Psy (talk) 19:53, 9 December 2019 (CET)

When the registration for SOS will open? What is the deadline to submit a topic? Thank you.

I cant say more as "when it's done" :/. we need to update/fix the submission form and rooms first. afaik there is no deadline, but the slots might be gone fast. --Psy (talk) 21:58, 10 December 2019 (CET)
