CCC opens halfnarp tool for 40C3 attendees to rank talk preferences
The Chaos Communication Congress (40C3) has launched a tool called halfnarp that lets attendees select talks they want to watch and submit their preferences. Organizers say the data will help reduce scheduling conflicts when building the event's Fahrplan (program schedule). Users are directed to an FAQ and blog post for details, with issues reportable to organizer [email protected].
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Crowdsourcing attendee preferences could let organizers identify which sessions are likely to draw overlapping audiences, potentially easing the difficulty of multi-track scheduling at a large community-run conference. This kind of participatory planning reflects the CCC's broader culture of involving its community directly in event logistics rather than relying solely on organizer judgment.
- 40C3 introduced a 'halfnarp' tool for attendees to indicate talk preferences.
- The tool aims to help organizers minimize scheduling conflicts in the Fahrplan.
- Users can submit feedback or report problems directly to the organizing team.
