Cryptoparty London has inherited a culture of Do-ocracy, Sudo-Leadership, and Excellence from here:

https://cryptoparty.org/wiki/CryptoParty#Suggested_Conduct

which derives from:

Noisebridge's 'Tripartite Pillars'

https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Noisebridge_Vision#Tripartite_Pillars

and

https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Noisebridge_Vision

also ancestrally, from the international hackspace design patterns (from the 24th CCC in 2007,

I have also discussed this here: http://samthetechie.blogspot.co.uk/2012/09/observations-of-alecms-observations-of.html

CryptoParty Design Patterns in Howto section in chapter_00 ?

samthetechie commented 11 years ago

Yeah I agree that this is the best place. Was having a debate with Pettter on IRC about where or not the whole section should be in the book! From reading the entire page on the handbook ( https://cryptoparty.org/wiki/CryptoPartyHandbook) it appears that the book should be a crypto manual with a low barrier of entry for all in the first place but then also a resource dedicated for people attending cryptoparties second (So I see a well written howto section with lots of cultural references as essential to make it an effective outreach tool).

I agree that there should be some of this stuff in there. However, I am not convinced that it should involve "lots" of cultural references. The focus of the book should imo be usable and practical cryptographic tools, not politics, ideology or culture.
