Finally. You can there find lots of information about how to participate and what to expect. Head over to the 24C3 Website-Wiki and have a look.
As the website is a wiki you can add information and edit (most of) the text. At the last events – especially the Chaos Communication Camp – many people used the wiki to plan things, let other people know about it and find others with similar interests. Please go ahead!
Today was the last content meeting prior to the congress. All submissions are now decided and a lot already have been confirmed. We also prepared an initial schedule using our high-tech “paper on ground floor” method and will be tweaking it over the next days. Expect a preliminary schedule sometime soonish.

24C3 is a low-cost and volunteer-driven event and we have a tiny budget if you compare it to commercial conferences. In many cases, however, we can offer reimbursement for travel expenses. While we cannot sponsor you a free vacation in Berlin, as an accepted speaker you get free entry to the event and we’ll probably be able work out expenses for overseas travel. For further information and …
We’d like to use this channel to announce a recently created blog from the CCC orbit. Its purpose is to communicate the German political discussion revolving around netizenship, freedom of information, surveillance tendencies etc, to a non-German/non-German-speaking audience.
Several recent events led to the creation of the Bitkanone: One is just generally the tightening bonds with net activists from around Europe and from across the Big Pond. Having the Camp Anaconda over at the CCCamp was really cool, and we are looking for ways of staying in touch.
Another thing that fueled the Bitkanone …
We didn’t want to keep this from you. A photo of the 24C3 kickoff meeting in the Mauerpark end of August. So idyllic. So much planning already going on, despite the fact that our CCCamp-tested tents were still hung over doors and tables at home for drying and despite the fact that some of us still got glazed looks of reminiscence whenever the Camp came up in the discussion on what to improve and how. Perhaps by now you can guess that we are all eager and looking forward to the 24C3 already…
Also, I want to use this posting to repeat, once again: This year’s Congress will have Steampunk woven …
We’re extremely happy with the first round of planning for the upcoming 24th Chaos Communication Congress. Lots of crazy ideas are currently being tossed around and with a little luck some of them will eventually end up in the final program. Expect lots of Steampunk, discussions around current computer security nightmares as well as burning political issues and (if you keep your fingers crossed) an exciting speaker for the keynote talk.
We still want your submissions for the congress (the Call for Participation has not ended yet). So, submit your life-changing and amazing talk or workshop …

The Chaos Communication Camp is over, so it’s time to announce the Call for Participation of the 24th Chaos Communication Congress 2007 (24C3). The Chaos Communication Congress is the annual four-day conference organized by the Chaos Computer Club (CCC) and taking place in Berlin, Germany. The 24C3s slogan is Volldampf voraus! — the German equivalent of “full steam ahead” a particular request for talks and projects featuring forward looking hands-on topics. The Chaos Computer Club has always encouraged creative and …
We’re in the process of finalizing the Call for Participation for the 24th Chaos Communication Congress. Expect more soon. One thing that we can tell you now: this congress is going to be hot – steaming hot, that is.
We are excited to announce that Dr. David Chaum, cryptographer and founder of DigiCash, accepted our invitation to come to the Camp.
He will describe his ideas for enabling voters to verify their votes, using simple cryptographic techniques to ensure election integrity. David Chaum developed the system, Scantegrity, in open source and will introduce it in a talk on Saturday at 6.30 pm in Shelter Foo.
Just a reminder: Today is the last chance to take a flight with the antonow bi-plane above the camp – they start 14:00 and continue as long as there are new customers. See the wiki page for further information.
The museum will do a guided tour within the museum today. Meet at 19:00 at the statue next to the snack bar – the tour will be held in German, but we are currently trying to get a translator.
