A list of things to do, to pack and tips on attending a congress, especially Chaos Communication Congress.

congresschecklist's Issues

Allowed radioactive things

From my experience you're normal tritium glow lights (the ones you carry on your keyring) are allowed.
Traveled a few times with my keys in my jacket and completely forgot about them. Security never complained.

Knives

I am too lazy to wip up a merge request but here it goes:

The German weapons law requires any knive you are carrying on your person (i.e. pocket knives, swiss knives) to match following criteria:

• They must not be able to be opened with one hand (some have a special knob at the blade that allows those) if they are folding knives.
• Their blades must not exceed 12 cm.

Violating these laws incurs a fine.

Also butterfly knives, switchblades and fall knives are forbidden.

This applies of course for CCC since it is in Germany.

General rule of thumb: If you bring a knive or any other potential "dangerous" things, check the local law first.

"Behaving like $swearword"?

If you don't want to be called $swearword, don't behave like one.

Hmm - isn't this just a more nicely phrased "but he/she asked for it!"?

ham raido prefix for Germany

the correct ham radio prefix for Germany is 'DL/' for a CEPT licence and 'DO/' for a CEPT-Novice licence

34c3 Emergency Information should be updated for 35c3

License

Hi, could you please add a license for the resources provided in this repo? Maybe something like CC-BY-SA etc.?

thank you :)

Updates for 36c3 (Emergency+More)

In preparation for this year's congress we should update the checklist earlier than last time. If there are any changes necessary, we can collect them here and resolve them with a PR.

List sshuttle as (poor man's) VPN solution

I personally use sshuttle as a poor man's VPN solution and it works quite well.

Google Docs fights back (i.e. wants to delete file)

Probably it was not a good idea to host the USB-C matrix on Google docs: https://github.com/MacLemon/CongressChecklist/blame/master/README.md#L328

Because it tells me now them file is going to be deleted. Whatever that means… 🤔

Better to host somewhere else, next time… 😄 Maybe in a non-propriety and Google-controlled fashion. 😉
