22C3 Update: What happened to the video recordings and when will they be available? 04.02.2006
Some folks are starting to complain again as the video recordings of the 22. Chaos Comuncation Congress 2005 are not available yet.
The recordings are not lost, they are indeed complete and in a very good condition - but only on the 400 digital video tapes. As the 22C3-video crew from the Streamingteam of FeM e.V. tells us in this posting, there is an easy explanation to this. They started working on the recordings straight after the congress and soon had to realise, that almost all of the recordings that they made live through ffmpeg etc. were corrupted: The audio and video is just not in sync and it this wrong sync is changing all through the recordings so nobody can shift video and audio until its okay again.
Here’s what they did than:
So we engaged DEFCON 4 and got back on our backup solution that was there, just in case the open source would not work (who would have thought that?!).
So what’s DEFCON 4? We came to the congress with 400 brand new DV tapes. And that’s simply our backup solution: Everything that was recorded on the 22c3 is on DV tape. And it’s in sync there.
So we are extracting nearly all of the recordings from those DV tapes…
And as you can imagine: that takes time. It takes less time than we’d expected - so we are making serious progress. Together with the CCC it was decided that an intro and outro should be added to each recording - that also takes some time. If you are experienced in creating scripted/batched DV material with definable text… we obviously need your help :-)
So when will the recordings be available? We hope very very soon. Like I said we are making good progress in getting the stuff from the tapes but it’s very difficult to give a time line. Check back here for updated information - … well if we can get the intro/outro issue working fast it’ll probably be only days away.

Where does the 22C3-Audience came from? 02.01.2006
This is a kind of Data-Retention, one can endure perhaps: There is a Frappr!-group about the 22C3 and everybody who attended the 22nd Chaos Communication Congress is free to add him- oder herself to that group, so one can see, where the audience of the 22C3 came from.
Frappr! stands for “Friend Mapper” and is a website dedicated to locate people at the place (home, work, holiday, etc.) they specified themselves and can be regarded as “Social Software“.
There is also a Frappr!-group for the Chaosradio, the radioshow of the Chaos Computer Club Berlin, which is organised by Tim Pritlove. And beeing the creative and independent guy that I am, I also created a Frappr!-group for my audience, the listeners of CongressRadio.
So join Frappr! if you like (you can use another Name and a disposable Email-Address, e.g. via “Mailinator“) and add your location to the mentioned groups.

Podcast #6 - Informationsfreiheitsgesetz 29.12.2005
Am Tag 2 gab es um 13 Uhr einen Vortrag von Jörg Tauss über das Informationsfreiheitsgesetz des Bundes, dass am 1.1.2006 in Kraft treten wird. Hier geht es um das allgemeine Einsichtsrecht für Bürger in Behördenunterlagen, jedoch vorerst nur für Bundesbehörden und außerdem nicht bei sicherheitsrelevanten Vorgängen und Einrichtungen wie dem BKA.
Mit dem Informationsfreiheitsgesetz des Bundes habe sich Deutschland endlich in den Kreis der Länder eingereiht, für die dies eine Selbstverständlichkeit sei, z.B. seit 1766 in Schweden, heißt es in der Beschreibung des Vortrages im Konferenzprogramm. Dennoch bleibt das neue Gesetz auch hinter manchen Erwartungen zurück. Daher sollte der Vortrag die Fragen klären, welche Chancen es bietet, wie es genutzt und möglicherweise weiterentwickelt werden kann.
Im Podcast #6 wird Jörg Tauss von Wera zum Inhalt, der Entstehung, Kompromissen und anderen Aspekten des Informationsfreiheitsgesetz des Bundes befragt.
