CDR: Fwd: Re: First Cypherpunks Physical Meeting Europe
Cypherpunks, I sent this out this morning. I left the huge "To:" list intact, even though many/most are censorioius, closed lists. I knew I would get a bunch of bounces, saying I was not authorized to post to their elite list. What I didn't check was whether the _real_ list, Cypherpunks, was on the distribution list. It wasn't. The fuckheads out there who blather about being "coderpunks" and "cryptorights" warriors are not even posting to Cypherpunks. And yet they claim, falsely, to organizing the "first cypherpunks physical meeting in Europe." I guess what Churchill said is right: "The Hun is either at your throat or at your feet."

In the interest of accuracy, this is certainly NOT the "first Cypherpunks physical meeting in Europe."
For example,
" 4th Cypherpunks meeting, London -------------------------------
Will be held Saturday, 20 February 1993, at 1400 in the office of:
FOREST 4th Floor 2 Grosvenor Gardens London SW1W 0DH 071-823-6550 "
Or there are the various meetings held in or near Amsterdam:
When: Saturday, August 9, 1997 at 1:00 PM PDT. [22:00 local]
Where: The Workshop tent, HIP'97 Campground, Almere, The Netherlands.
And there are the ones held at the homes or hotels of American Cypherpunks living/working in places in Europe. I recall several mentions of these.

It was sent to cypherpunks@koeln.ccc.de, and it did arrive in my cypherpunks mail folder. It's certainly not the first cypherpunks meeting in Europe, but it sounds interesting anyway. Too bad they're organizing it now that I don't live in Europe any more...

there've been several postings to the cypherpunks list about this, mostly by me.

I was not aware of any prior meetings. anyone got details?

tim, don't make a fool of yourself. there's been LOTS of announcements of this meeting to the cypherpunks list, long before the first one was posted to any other list. I should know, I made those early postings.
