38C3 Hub / Wiki / Assemblies

EN DE

We have opened the 38C3 Public Wiki – which we generally call “Hub” by now. The hub is meant as the central place for getting information about content at Congress: It aggregates the events from the main stages (Fahrplan), community stages, assemblies, as well as self-organized sessions into one schedule which is then also used by the mobile apps.

You can view the registered and accepted assemblies in the Assembly list. Please note, the Assembly team has not yet processed all registrations and the list will fill up over the next few days.

In long form: The merch pre-sales of the last two events have turned out to be a practical way for us and you to secure your memorabilia in the cut and color of your choice from the comfort of your computer at home and then have it handed out …

38C3 Accessibility Update

38C3 Accessibility Update

EN DE

How will accessibility be at Congress? We have learned a lot last year. There are improvements. And there’s one big catch.

Blocking the Blind Guidance System

The blind guidance system was unreliable at 37C3. It was often blocked by shoes, for instance. Some guided paths will therefore be officially disabled: in places where we could not make the system reliable. These spots and diversions will soon be listed in the info pages.

Please help and keep the guidance system free of obstacles. You are encouraged to clear obstacles when you see them.
