        Well , a Good start !!! I shall encourage the guys to go on with the Idea !
        Defcon really needs a "Thread for Starters" 'cause every one was once a starter and shouldn't forget this as this fact of our past! Hope to see some more good threads like this ! Criticism leads to success sometime! So its all welcomed !!!!!!!!!!!!!

            DefCon also needs a rule against over usage of exclamation points!

                Should the DC101 go on the TTBs?

                    I think thats a pretty awesome idea. There will be some stuff that is defcon specific, and not of much use to some people, but there will be a good deal of info given at dc101 that could be of interest to a lot of the people who get a chance with the TTB.
                    Of course its fully cooked... we had it set on "linen".

                            disclaimers...

                            1. i wasn't present at any thursday talks besides DC101

                            2. i'm biased on this, given that i had my own opinion before this was proposed

                            having said that...

                            1. everyone who was at the intro talks that spoke to me about things that day was highly disappointed. of particular note was the intro to lockpicking talk.

                            IMPORTANT CLARIFICATION - this talk was in no way affiliated with me or my staff. we were not advised it was happening or consulted about who was speaking there. (and i'm absolutely not asserting that it was our place to be in that decision at all... but lots of people did assume that we somehow had put that together so there was a lot of indirect apology all weekend, etc)

                            2. while there are certain useful aspects to intro talks, it's a huge schedule killer having them like that on thursday. thursday already was established in a number of ways and people's time is already so frenzied between load-in and thursday events. so both type of attendees (organizers and newbies) are torn between tasks at hand (logistics and events, respectively) or these talks (at participants or audience, respectively)

                            again... i'm still a bit sleep-deprived and we're all pretty sick, so these thoughts could be coming out half-formed, but i'm just reporting my own initial thoughts.

DRM, low bit rate, etc... OiNK it existed because it filled a void of what people want."

                                I wouldn't mind doing a short talk on crypto. My sensei is Lars Knudsen (of integral cryptanalysis fame), and I'd say I could do a 15-20 minute talk on RSA and AES or whatever people want me to talk about.
