Dates of the main conference and the workshops are:

• conference at 24-26th October
• Diwali fest with LEDs on Thursday 23rd,
• and hands-on workshops in the two weeks before: not only amongs experts, but very much also with local kids and grown-ups.

The event is community-driven, non-commmercial, unconferenced and barcamped: Everything just happens cause volunteers are doing it – based on the love and joy of playing around with technology. People donate time, tools and money to make something new happen: Different disciplines around technology getting together at the foothills of the Himalaya.
