Pre-sales closed, Reservation system online!
Pre-sales were closed on July 3rd. But we have thought on how we can make the ticket-sale more convenient for you and give you the security that you will not stand in front of closed gates after travelling for thousands of kilometers. We will run a registration, with which you can secure your ticket that you can purchase at the entrance of WTH. The reservation system is online, so you can make your reservation with a single click!
So if you want to be absolutely sure there's room for you, make use of the registration.
Do not transfer money to our bankaccount anymore, we can not guarantuee that it will be handled in time (or at all) before the event, so you run the risk of having to pay at the entrance again to get in.
HackTrain Cancelled
There were way too few registrations.
More info soon by Mail and on their website. We all feel very sad about it, and want to shout a very big Thank you to scamp and enno for their enthusiasm - they really did not deserve such an end.

Fiber party (16th of juli)
WE NEED HELP

Calendar
FooBar has made an icalendar-compatible calendar available that includes all buildup events, and will include events from the event itself later. You can subscribe to it using http://webdav.maniac.nl/WhatTheHack.ics Please notify me of any events you want included here.
Establishing Webs of Trust
There will be a PGP_Keysigning at WTH. There will also be CAcert assuring going on (as well as assuring for Thawte!). Both systems are based on webs of trust, therefore count on you! If you do not yet have a PGP Key and/or CAcert(/Thawte) account, please consider creating one and to take part in those events (please list as a participant on the apropriate page too).
More info on those topics can be found on the pages linked above. There will be loads of people at WTH willing to sign your key, so it will really give it a strong level of trust. As for CAcert there will be by far enough assurers on WTH to make sure you are an assurer yourself at the end of WTH. These are two great opportunities!
Please Notify Us if you plan to arrive with a Camper or Motor Home
Lately we get a lot of emails regarding people bringing Campers or Motor Homes.
We got them on so many different email addresses that we lost count, sorry about that.
We would like you to come forward (even if you already emailed before) and
to notify our Camping Coordinator about your arrival, please visit this page for more details. Thanks !!

in which you shortly describe :

- special things
- and whatever else you find helpful to communicate to a large number of people.
I will put it into our Newsflash on the announce-mailinglist, that reaches about 1700 interested people at the moment.
PS: it'll be great if you could put your e-mail-addresses with the villages or in linked user-pages here on the wiki! Thanks!
