>  The seventh Eclectic Tech Carnival will be held from Sunday the 25th until
>  Saturday the 31st of May in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
>
>  The /ETC is a unique tech skill-share that has been held annually since
>  2002. The emphasis has always been women sharing their experiences,
>  knowledge and skills around free software, open hardware and universal
>  interoperability of systems in a fun way.
>
>  We are calling all women who are interested in the Eclectic Tech Carnival
>  to register via the following form:
>  https://eclectictechcarnival.org/register
>
>  Registration closes at 23:59 on 1 April 2008.
>
>  Participate! Whether you want to follow the content of the event or
>  whether you want to present a workshop, lecture, performance, playlab,
>  intervention, exhibition, you name it (to a certain degree) at the /ETC
>  you're welcome.
>
>  In addition to the skill-share program, this year the Eclectic Tech
>  Carnival will be focusing on a number of specific political issues: the
>  "life cycle" of hardware - from mining, to labour practices in the
>  manufacturing industry, to waste management. In addition we will explore
>  why there seems to be so little public interest in Privacy, or lack of, on
>  the Net. And what can we learn from the Creative Commons movement?
>
>  The participation fee of /ETC 2008 is as follows:
>  For all seven days: a sliding scale of 30/60/120 Euros (at your own
>  discretion).
>  Per single day: 6 Euros.
>  The evenings will be open to the public and free of charge.
>
>  Our graded, scaled fee system aims to take into account that women are
>  from varying contexts. This includes income, country of origin and
>  personal priorities.
>
>  The registration fee is collected from all participants, contributors and
>  organisers. It covers, among other things, vegan food for all.
>
>  We cannot accept payment on-line so please be prepared to pay cash, in
>  Euros when you arrive.
>
>  We have reserved a limited number of beds in a Youth Hostel, which will be
>  filled on a first come, first served basis. If there are more people in
>  need of accommodation, we will do our best to find a bed among our friends
>  and acquaintances in Amsterdam.
>
>  There is a discreet amount of money for those who need a travel grant.
>  Please keep in mind that we do not reimburse flights but only [cheap] 2nd
>  class train or bus tickets. One condition is that you need to register
>  before April 1st 2008. We will look at each request individually.
>
>  Please feel free to contact us at any time starting immediately.
