"This is our world now..."
This is the offical announcement for SummerCon 2000. Like last year,
this years conference is going to be in Atlanta, GA at the Omni @ CNN Center,
on June 2, 3, and 4th.
The conference will be held at the Omni Hotel which is part of the CNN Center
in downtown Atlanta.
Who's Invited:
Calling all hackers, phreakers, phrackers,
2600 kids, cops, security professionals,
r00t kids club, press, groupies,
and k0d3 kids. And everyone else.
Pricing:
FREE
Tee Shirts will be sold to help pay for the conference.
Scheduled Speakers:
If you would like to speak, send an email to
[email protected] with a paragraph of what you would
like to speak on. The official list still has to be
compiled but we still need more speakers.
Rules:
Don't do anything your parents wouldn't approve of.
Damage or destruction of hotel property will not be tolerated.
Hotel Information:
The conference will be held at the Omni Hotel at CNN Center. Since we will be at CNN Center, there
should be opportunities to see CNN in action. In fact,
CNN Interactive has large windows allowing anyone to "observe"
their daily activities.
The Omni is probably not used to having large amounts of
computer enthusiasts roaming the hotel. I did not do what I could
to get the conference a discount rate for the conference. If
you call the Hotel @ 404-659-0000 and tell them you are going
to attend "The Summer Security Conference" they will be confused.
I found the Hotel a bit difficult to work with, and so might you.
There are other hotels close by and if you are looking for a thrifty
rate, you will be better off not staying at the Omni.
