Participants list[edit]

This public participants list is populated voluntarily by each participant - if you plan to attend the hackathon, feel free to add yourself below!

Please note that adding yourself to this table is not the same thing as filling out the registration form. If you plan to attend the onsite hackathon, make sure to register.

Disclaimer: It is up to you if you would like to add the arrival information in the "Arrive at Airport ATH" on the wiki. No one should feel compelled to share this information for privacy reasons. As a suggestion, you can use Telegram when you arrive at the airport to see if others around want to share a taxi/Uber/public transport to the venue.
