hi,

we are organising a conference about about autonomous infrastructures for a free Internet. it will take place near Barcelona at Calafou, the Eco-Industrial Post-Capitalist Colony. we think Unhosted is a highly relevant part of the puzzle, so it would be super if you could attend. you are also invited to hang around for a few days after the conference, as we hope some will do, for more hands on hacking. we are publishing a list of projects who will be there in one or two weeks, so if any of you attends, we would like to know if we can add Unhosted to that list.

thanks and please find the official call below:

Backbone 409: Autonomous infrastructures for a free Internet

June 14-15 2014, Calafou, near Barcelona

A gathering of projects actively building infrastructures for a
free Internet from an anti-capitalist point of view: autonomous
servers, open networks, online services, platforms, open
hardware, free software, etc.

The recent revelations about mass surveillance by states and
corporations made the idea of a free Internet more topical than
ever before, and at the same time generated popular interest in
the topic. There are people who are looking at us to provide
solutions and many others who just got interested about the topic
and look for ways to get involved.

We are organizing a two-day event mixing round table discussions
with practical workshops on security, outreach, knowledge
sharing, usability, sustainability, synergies between projects,
legal issues, etc.

To challenge the language barrier which often excludes Spanish
speaking people from Southern Europe and Latin America from the
Anglo-Saxon discourse, and the other way around, we will provide
simultaneous interpretation.

If you are interested in coming, please contact us so we can
build a list of participants and structure the content
accordingly.

In solidarity,
