All recordings and streams are released under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) license.

Things to avoid
36C3 is a non-commercial conference. While a non-obtrusive mention of your employer on the first slide is acceptable, please refrain from abusing the stage as a marketing show.
We do not wish to give active military or secret service personnel a stage. So if you or your co-speakers have an undisclosed mil/sec background, you will be un-invited even if we initially had accepted your submission.
Final touches & Arrival on venue
Please double check your abstract, lecture details and speaker's bio. 36C3 content curation teams or the speaker's desk are glad to help.
Do you want to add a paper to our proceedings? If so, send us an e-mail.
During Congress the speaker's desk is your primary point of contact. They can help you out with a printer, tea and cookies, and provide a work space for you to put finishing touches on your presentation. The speaker's desk is also in charge of maintaining the schedule and making adjustments as necessary.
Please report to the speaker's desk when you arrive at the venue, preferably at least an hour before your presentation, to let them know that you're ready to present.
