As we head into Day 1, the 29c3 Setup is nearly complete. As you can see from this small sample of sights from the 29c3, we’re making very creative use of our much, much larger space without losing the feeling that makes the congress so special.
As FEM banner above suggests, talks will be streamed from the 29c3.
To eliminate any potential confusion from the last post about clothing: Pre-Ordered clothing will remain reserved until the end of the 29c3. Even if certain items are sold out to the general public, you can pick up your pre-orders at any time during the 29c3.
In addition to the standard WiFI flavors offered at previous CCC Events, you can now connect to Spacenet federated authenticated WiFi.
Even if you don’t belong to a Spacenet connected node, you can add an extra layer of security to your WiFi traffic by logging in as a 29c3 guest.
Check out more details on the 29c3 Spacenet page for more details!
If you have pre-ordered a t-shirt, hoodie, or zipper, you can pick it up at the counter next to the cash desk during day 0 (aka today, December 26th, once the cash desks open) or day 1 (aka tomorrow, December 27th) only!
If you did not pre-order any clothes, you have the chance to buy some from day 2 onwards.
From the start on, we will also sell clothes from past events. Also, we have a lot of 29C3 posters left which are given out for a donation in an amount of your choice.
In this blogpost we introduce you to the new concept of shared spaces that can be found among the assemblies.
An earlier blogpost introduced you to the concept of workshops run by assemblies.
These assemblies already registered seats for themselves and requested optional “special seats” specifically for workshops.
We assigned seats to every assembly that registered on time. Fortunately, we had more than enough seats to fulfill all requests. In order to effectively utilize the extra space and help …
The Chaos Computer Club is committed to providing a safe and comfortable experience for everybody attending our events, regardless of age, gender, sexual orientation, race, physical appearance or disability. We do not tolerate harassment of participants of the Congress in any form.

If you’re unloading a vehicle with equipment or other stuff you plan to use at the 29c3, put Tiergartenstraße 2, 20355 Hamburg in your GPS. Head to Eingang A Eingang C and check with the Angel or Security Guard inside for further instructions. Please use this entry only for loading and unloading.
We’re looking forward to seeing you in Hamburg!

And yes, the WiFi is currently working at the CCH.
Yes, there is still time to submit your LT! Check out the wiki for more details!
As usual, there will be three sessions of lightning talks at the 29c3. Because of the volume and style of submissions received so far, we’ll have a standard round of 5 minute lightning talks on each day. However, we’ll still have a [Pecha Kucha][2] round in the first half of Day 3 as well as introducing a round of [FOSDEM][3] style 15-minute lightning talks on Day 4.
Thanks to all the workshops and assemblies, the LT schedule is already filling up much faster than any previous congress. If you’d …

You can help make the 29c3 special for you and a fellow nerd by grabbing one or more of these items!
