Vom 18. bis 20. Mai 2012 findet in Köln die SIGINT, die Konferenz für Hacker, Netzbewohner und Aktivisten, statt.

Unser Beitragsaufruf (“Call for Papers”) ist jetzt online und kann unter http://sigint.ccc.de/Beitragsaufruf begutachtet werden.

Worum es geht? Um die Zukunft, wie schon 2009 und 2010 (2011 fiel die SIGINT aus, um dem Camp den nötigen Platz im Kalender zu geben).

Please tell us, why this person can’t pay the full price and why he or she should take part in 28C3 nevertheless. Usually we agree on some affordable price. But please keep in mind that tickets are already very cheap and that we can handle only a limited …
