Welcome to the HOPE Forums, also known as talk.hope.net. Since 1994 (the year of the first HOPE conference), we've had nine conferences. This is the place to come up with ideas, make suggestions, and welcome new people.

You'll find sections on just about anything of interest to HOPE attendees. If you think something is missing start a thread in the "General Questions" forum and/or ask people about it. Thanks for participating and see you at HOPE!

Well the best part is you'd be paying yourself.

Re: Emmanuel Goldstein (keynote 2008)

Well now, lets think about this.  Why not have Emmanuel as a Keynote?  If we think about this, he has been involved in the Hacker and Phreaker community since 1984 (probably before that too), he has had articles written about him, been on TV, appeared before Congress (or was it the Senate?) and, has ties to other legends in the community, Phiber, Kevin, Cheshire, Bernie, Crunch,  and many more.  I can't think of one reason why we shouldnt have him.

Re: Emmanuel Goldstein (keynote 2008)

I'm just saying it takes time and effort to prepare a keynote speech, and if you're running the conference at the same time, that's a lof of extra work and stress.

It would be a travesty if Emmanuel Goldstein did not give a keynote address at the next HOPE conference.

I'm sure he could spare a hour or so.  If he can do a panel about 2600 meetings and an uneditied version of off the hook, then he can fit it into his schedule.

Re: Emmanuel Goldstein (keynote 2008)

Emmanuel already gives the longest speech at HOPE.  It lasts for about three days, and can be caught in chapters ranging from a few seconds to an hour throughout the con.

SO why not make it and "official" speech other then the ones he does?

Re: Emmanuel Goldstein (keynote 2008)

To those of us who do not know him personally but only from the HOPE & OTH audio files, Emmanuel is an enigma. We don't know much about his past exploits or impressive feats. All we know is that he has a very familiar voice, face, and name. It would be very interesting to hear about some of his adventures and his thoughts on the state and future state of hacking on planet earth. Like Pirho, i see no reason for him not to, especially seeing as the cons may only be around (at least in the traditional venue) for one more event.
