Well, both occasions were just great. At HAL2001 I was only for two days, so the whole thing was a bit stressful given that we had to travel 11 hours by car to get there. At the CCC Camp 2003, we stayed for 5 days, which nicely compensated the long car trip. My main activity at both events was paying visits to the various talks and presentations, and experimenting with the local network setup. At both events, the organisators managed to bring up a wireless network on the whole camp area, so that by itself was enough reason to play around with things. > How did people react to your visual imparment, assuming you have > one. Yes, I am fully blind, and no, there was no special reaction at all. I experienced that as a very positive thing. It kind of seems like all the people on that event were too intelligent to ask stupid disability questions.
