+## 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, he 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 costs?**  
+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.
+
+* **Sleeping**  
+Hackmeeting will be held in a large open green area, so it is
+**necessary** to bring tends and sleeping bags for camping. You can
+park your caravan or camper-van not too far away.  
+There will **no** place to sleep inside, plan accordingly!
+
+* **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.  
+You should bring your own crockery/plates and cutlery (you are going
+camping!). We have a few in place but they will not be enough for everybody.
+
+* **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 (prepare web infrastructure, prepare 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.
+
+### The location
+The area where Hackmeeting will be held is split in two by a two-lane
+road with car traffic.
+
+One side is called “Borgata 8 Dicembre”, and it has been defended from
+destruction thanks to the popular struggle, and it is now managed and
+offered from the Venaus town-council administration. There will be
+rooms there for talks and seminars to be held.
+These rooms will be have to be locked at night (after we have finished
+all the talks and seminars).
+
+On the other side of the road, called "presidio" of Venaus, there will
+the sleeping area for tents, camping, caravans, and trailers, as well
+as a "relax area", the kitchen, toilets, showers, the LAN space, and a
+bar.
+
+In order for you and everybody else to have an enjoyable experience,
+you should follow some simple rules:
+
+* **respect the environment**  
+Do not light fires and do not leave around any type of waste or
+rubbish.
+
+* **respect the local people**  
+If you have a walk in the town, do not write on the walls of houses
+(as you will see by looking at the big highway pillars, in this valley
+we try to do so where it has the most meaning). Do not steal from the
+small shops (they are often run by families who support the popular
+struggle of the valley, not by big multinational companies). The same
+holds for the kitchen gardens you will find along the road.
+
+* **respect people around you**  
+Please do not smoke in the closed areas where the talks will be
+held. You can smoke outside.
+
+* **do not bring pets if you can't control them**  
+If your dog/parrot/horse/cat/turtle comes along with you, remember
+that the area where the event is held is split in two by a road, which
+does not have much car traffic but does have some, so take care of
+your pets and/or children.
+
+* **children**  
+We do support parents who are growing up the new generation of
+hackers. If you want to bring your children, be aware that you will
+have to take care of them as you do every other day of the year. Also
+remember: Hackmeeting is also a festival, so do not pretend the
+lights to be turned off at midnight, or that people refrain to use a
+language that you might judge inappropriate.
