Nothing happens beside hacker meetings this year? Strange...
The atmosphere is decidedly different this time, it seems like less people than in the previous years, which is probably the consequence of several decisions: Higher congress fee, no student rebates, much smaller Hackcenter, overnight stay (sleeping) in the building is discouraged (as is smoking).
Part of the lectures are not really new, some are even just (small) expansions on things that were there last year. Dan Kaminsky go some really interesting results from the things he started last year, though.
