Lectures are expected to be highly relevant in practice or better be
darn funny. Sales droids have been known to disappear without traces on
past events. Interactive Workshops welcome. Hands-On anything even more
welcome.

Intelligent beings wishing to present a paper should submit title and an
one- or two-paragraph abstract (in German or English), references and
URLs, a short biography, and contact information to
[](mailto:congress-crew@ccc.de) RSN, no later than December 1st.

Notice of acceptance will be sent out as soon as possible. Final
presentations should be in English or German and be up to 45 or up to
100 minutes long, including a question-and-answer period.

As this is a non-profit organisation and non-profit event, the CCC will
not be able to compensate travel or hotel costs let alone a speaker
honorarium, well, maybe travel costs. We are, however, able to arrange
accommodation for low or no cost.

The preliminary agenda will be published on the web [](/congress/2002/)
in the near future. Registration information will be posted, too.

So, do you dare to speak in front of people who might have downloaded
your script from your computer in advance and spotted all the logical
errors?
