We should learn from the defcon setup

I think all the people who made things like Defcon TV, the wifi network, Defcon by Phone, Defcon Radio, etc. should post detailed HOWTOs as to how they did it. It would be very useful. I'm especially interested in a detailed explanation of the phone system, asterisk is pretty amazing.

DC by phone: nice, but a little flaw

Defcon by phone was a great idea.
I was really impressed when it called my cell to tell me that
the tent was f'kocht on Friday.

One pet peeve: I shouldn't need a PIN to find out what events are
coming up in the next hour. This is not secure information.. I needed
to use it once or twice, but I didn't have my PIN handy, so I just hung up.
Silly! It would be better if there were a more sensible partition
between account-specific information (for which I should need a PIN) and
general information (for which I should NOT need a PIN). K.I.S.S.
