Massive thank you to everyone who made #39c3 possible! This event is built by the community, for the community and it shows.
To the organisers, angels (volunteers), speakers, infrastructure teams, and everyone who supported the event in big and small ways.
Some more interesting stats about the kidspace around noise levels (LOL) and the Herald system. #39c3
On day 0, an evacuation meeting was held which has more than 500 angels attending. This broke the system last year but thankfully didn't happen this year. Massive thanks to all the angels for their contributions! #39c3
Next up in the Angels. Stats:
5686 accounts exist in the system. 4691 people showed up and of that 3481 arrived and worked a shift. 6653 shifts were allocated.
More angels means more food. About 10 000 rolls were made, which equals 1400 rolls per day. 6529 QR codes were scanned for Angel food.
One speaker had 170 slides for a 45 minute talk and had practiced to get a high word per minute rate which made this very difficult to translate. Doing this takes a significant toll on the translation team. #39c3
The team also synchronized data from PreTalx. Speakers helped by uploading their materials before hand so that they team could prepare for the translations. #39c3
The lingo team has built their own hardware for the specific requirements that they have. 2 were tested last year and 9 were deployed this year. A feat worthy of "Employee of the month" #39c3
Next up is the C3 lingo team who does the translations of the event.
74 Angels translated German to English
28 Angels translated various languages (French, etc). #39c3
7 seconds of audio was lost due to the Dante master clock being forcefully power cycled. Also some cables experienced some pain. #39c3
