As expected, the pre-sale-system has survived the performance check immediately to the release time.

The rush for the Pre-sale is still enormously. The tickets from the first Quota will be sold out in no time.

But: No Panic.

As announced, there will be a second, much larger, quota at the beginning of November. So anyone who had no luck this time get a new chance at the second quota.

The created accounts are also valid in the second quota.

The quota for our volunteers (Angels) from last year, dubbed ‘the golden token’, will be independent of the other “normal” quota.

For all risks and side …

In order to avoid any confusion, here is the short and sweet version of everything there is to know about the 27C3 ticket presale.

• The System will be available by today (10.10.10) at exactly 10:10am Berlin Time (08:10 UTC) via https://presale.events.ccc.de/ – if this doesn’t work, try https://213.73.91.79/ instead.
• The first batch of 800 Tickets will be accessible by then. The second (and biggest) batch will start after we released the first version of the schedule (the Fahrplan) in the beginning of November. More batches will be announced after those. Everyone who did not get one of the …

You’ve probably waited most of two weeks for this: The pre-sale for the 27th Chaos Communication Congress tickets will start this weekend. To be precise: We will open our server ports tomorrow morning, Sunday (October 10th), at 10:10 Berlin time (08:10 UTC).

For more details, e. g. business tickets, see our wiki and the FAQ.

This will be the first batch of three, offering 800 tickets. The second and largest batch will be available two days after we’ve published the …

As may you have noticed, the start of ticket sales for the 27th Chaos Communication Congress is still delayed.

We understand your annoyance. Rest assured, it annoys us just as much.

Anyone of you ever involved in a project knows: Something always comes amiss, there is always some unexpected problem pushing the release date back into the future. Project “27c3” unfortunately is not an exception to this. Especially since all the work – including the presale system – is being done by volunteers, most of them with a regular day job.

Behind the scenes our coding and hacking mill is spinning, while …

Am 16. und 17. Oktober 2010 findet nun schon zum mittlerweile siebten Mal das Symposium Datenspuren im Kulturzentrum Scheune in Dresden statt. Unter dem diesjährigen Motto “Mind the Gap!” geht es wieder um Ideenaustausch, Diskussionen, Wissen, kreative Visionen unserer Zukunft im Netz, Chaos, Spaß am Gerät, Datenschutz, Handhabung öffentlicher und privater Daten, Formung der Informationsgesellschaft und der uns umgebenden Realität. Anders als die meisten chaosnahen Veranstaltungen richten sich die Datenspuren an ein weites Publikum fern und nah der nerdigen Subkultur.

Zu den Themen dieses Jahr …

The ticket presale for the 27th Chaos Communication Congress scheduled for today will be delayed. We hope to begin selling tickets sometime this week. The presale system isn’t functioning correctly so far.

We’ll keep you informed.

Just a friendly reminder that the submission deadline for proposed talks and workshops is fast approaching. You still have a whole month – until October 9 – to think about what you’d like to contribute, and as always, we welcome your input. Please read the whole CfP here:
27C3 We Come In Peace Call for Papers

Spread the word, submit a talk – see you in December!

While the Call of Participation for the 27. Chaos Communication Congress (27C3) “We come in peace” lasts until 9th October 2010, we would like to make the travel scheduling for the willing people a bit easier. This year a Presale will be available.

Anticipation
Like it was impressively shown last year, the fluctuations in the rush on the Congress aren’t measurable in any way.
The bcc was completely packed, and all tickets sold. The principle of hope didn’t work out, and the displeasure by the people which traveled far and got rejected, or didn’t get a clear announcement relating to the …

We found a date and we found a place:

Since 1999 the Chaos Communication Camp has taken place every four years – and we will keep this rhythm. It is an international, five-day open-air event for hackers and associated life-forms. The venue is the same as in 2007, so some of you might know it already.

If you don’t have a clue about the Chaos Communication Camp, you might probably want to watch these videos:

• Camp 2007 documentation

Some history of the Camp is also available:
