Subject: PlumberCon 10 - Call for Papers

PlumberCon 10 Call For Participation

====================================


The Call For Papers for PlumberCon 10, 2nd edition, taking place in  
Vienna (Austria) is now open!

This year the conference will be held from July 09th - 11th (Fri -  
Sun) - in other words, the week between HitB Amsterdam and The Next  
H.O.P.E.


Introduction

------------

PlumberCon is a very unique hacker conference targeted at security  
researchers, system and network operators, application developers,  
hardware hackers, hackerspace members, and generally open-minded folks  
working or participating in the broad fields between information  
warfare and digital art.

It will combine the knowledge of experienced security speakers,  
hackers, and information warriors with the fun of a small but 1337  
conference at one of Vienna's most comfy & snugly meeting locations:  
the WerkzeugH. Its main goal is to help attendees understand the  
current state of art in information technology and security, and  
showcase projects evolved from the hackerspace movement.


This year's tagline: Make A Good Hack

-------------------------------------

After last year's tagline, 'The Internet is a Series of Tubes',  
PlumberCon 10 will take our approach towards security, hacking and  
technological innovation a step further, therefore being sub-entitled  
'Make A Good Hack!'.

Not only will you again have the chance to participate in workshops  
and the mainly security and networking-focused talks, but also get  
your hands on some hardware hacking, join in to various activities, or  
try your luck in the infamous challenge of PacketWars(tm). However  
much seriousness or amusement you bring into this, we'll make sure you  
get an overview of today's state-of-the-art technologies, insight into  
a bunch of the best hackers' mindsets, and learn new things!


Save the date: July 09th - 11th, 2010

-------------------------------------

The event is going to kick off with activities (including physical  
activity...), trainings, and an off-site biolab workshop followed by a  
small party on Friday, July 09th at Vienna's no. 1 hackerspace, the  
Metalab.

Talks & workshops will be held throughout Saturday & Sunday, July 10th  
& 11th respectively, also including a PacketWars game on Saturday  
night - making it 3 days and nights of talks, trainings, hands-on  
workshops, epic haXX0r battles and a little partying; the perfect  
combination of technology, IT security, hardware hacking, art, music,  
socializing and good times.


Have a talk to do with security, hacking, or making you'd like to  
submit?

trainings on Friday afternoon, a variety of 50-minute talks and hands-
