## Info
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* **Who is organizing?**
|
|||
|
|
Hackmeeting is a yearly meeting of a community that communicates
|
|||
|
|
through
|
|||
|
|
[a mailing list](https://www.autistici.org/mailman/listinfo/hackmeeting). There
|
|||
|
|
is no distinction between organizers and users. Everyone can subscribe
|
|||
|
|
and partecipate in the organization by visiting the site
|
|||
|
|
[it.hackmeeting.org](https://it.hackmeeting.org) and entering the community.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* **What is an hacker?**
|
|||
|
|
Hackers are curious people, always eager to discover how things are
|
|||
|
|
done. Whether it is technology or not, hackers reclaim freedom to
|
|||
|
|
experiment, disassemble and reassemble things or concepts, to
|
|||
|
|
understand how are they made, to improve them, and then to share how
|
|||
|
|
to do it again. Hackers solve problems and build things, believing in
|
|||
|
|
freedom and sharing. They do not like closed systems. Hackers' forma
|
|||
|
|
mentis is not restricted to the field of software hacking: there are
|
|||
|
|
people that keep the hacker mentality in every existing field, driven
|
|||
|
|
by their creative impulse.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* **Who holds the talks?**
|
|||
|
|
Whoever wants to. If someone wants to propose a talk, they just has to
|
|||
|
|
propose it on the mailing list. If the proposal is well received, it
|
|||
|
|
gets on calendar. If there are some problems, the community will be
|
|||
|
|
happy to help improve the proposal.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* **What’s in there, besides talks?**
|
|||
|
|
There is a LAN space, as to say an area dedicated to the net: everyone
|
|||
|
|
can plug their laptop, forming a network with the other participants. In
|
|||
|
|
general, this is the right place to meet other attendees, to ask for
|
|||
|
|
help in installing Linux, to solve a doubt, or just to have a chat.
|
|||
|
|
Hackmeeting is an open-air festival, a meeting, an hacking party, a
|
|||
|
|
moment of consideration, an occasion to learn something together, an act
|
|||
|
|
of rebellion, an exhange of ideas, experiences, dreams, utopias.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* **How much does it cost?**
|
|||
|
|
Traditionally, entrance in Hackmeeting is totally free: always keep in
|
|||
|
|
mind that organizing the event has a cost. Expenses are sustained
|
|||
|
|
through voluntary contributions, selling shirts and other gadgets and
|
|||
|
|
sometimes through the earnings of the bar.
|
|||
|
|
Please donate whatever you can, every small donation counts.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* **Eating**
|
|||
|
|
There is a self-organized kitchen, and we invite everyone to
|
|||
|
|
participate. As for every year, alimentary restrictions of every type
|
|||
|
|
will be respected, so there will be vegetarian and vegan meals.
|
|||
|
|
We also try to respect any other necessity (gluten-free meals and so
|
|||
|
|
on), if this is your case please write it in
|
|||
|
|
the mailing list.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* **What shall I bring?**
|
|||
|
|
If you want to bring a computer, take a power
|
|||
|
|
strip too. Do not forget networking hardware (like Ethernet cables,
|
|||
|
|
switches, WiFi access points). Remember to bring the hardware that
|
|||
|
|
you will want to hack in company. We will try to get some internet
|
|||
|
|
connection for everybody to share, but we can't really guarantee anything.
|
|||
|
|
If you think that you need it, bring a 3G/4G stick with you
|
|||
|
|
and the necessary to share it with friends! Try to be as independent
|
|||
|
|
as possible regarding your hardware.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* **May I arrive before Thursday?**
|
|||
|
|
Do you want to arrive sooner? Wonderful! In the preceding days there is
|
|||
|
|
always much to do (arrange network infrastructure, arrange seminar halls and
|
|||
|
|
many other things) so any helping hand is well accepted.
|
|||
|
|
Maybe just let us know in advance by sending a message in the list!
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* **May I take photos, make videos, post, tag, share, upload?**
|
|||
|
|
We think that the freedom to choose the dimensions of one’s own private
|
|||
|
|
sphere and public profile must be guaranteed to every participant: in
|
|||
|
|
this spirit, photos and/or videos are admitted only if explicitly
|
|||
|
|
authorized by every person that appears in the media. Nobody should be
|
|||
|
|
photographed without knowing.
|
|||
|
|
Many people at Hackmeeting really care about their privacy, please ask
|
|||
|
|
before taking a picture.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
* **How are people expected to behave?**
|
|||
|
|
Hackmeeting is a self-managed space, a temporary independent space and
|
|||
|
|
whoever passes through is expected to behave according to the principles
|
|||
|
|
of antisexism, antiracism and antifascism. If you are victim or witness
|
|||
|
|
of an act of oppression, aggression, brute force, port scan, ping flood
|
|||
|
|
and other non-consensual DOS and you do not know how to react, always
|
|||
|
|
count on the community’s support and do not hesitate to attract
|
|||
|
|
attention and ask for help.
