Let's have retrospective of what happened in the EventFahrplan project in the last months and what is planned.

[EventFahrplan](https://github.com/EventFahrplan/EventFahrplan) is the project behind a couple of apps for Android which you might already have used at Remote Chaos Experience (rC3), Chaos Communication Congress (3xC3), Chaos Communication Camp, DiVOC, MRMCD, FrOSCon, GPN, Datenspuren, FIfFKon, FOSDEM, FOSSGIS, FOSS4G, DebConf, LibreOffice Conference, PyConZA and other events. In this talk you will get to know both the details of the programming work as well as all the other topics which require time and engagement to run this project such as translation, design, documentation, advertisement, outreach, communication with users. Currently, the project is run by one person with occasional - but very welcome - contributions in the form of code reviews, translations, pull requests or just time to discuss ideas. There is essential no financial backing for the project - all work is done in personal spare time. A few people are giving money via [GitHub Sponsors](https://github.com/sponsors/johnjohndoe) - thank you! After this talk and Q&A you will have solid understanding how you can contribute to the project, shape its future or finance its development.

A toilet is a toilet is a toilet ... was a toilet. Nowadays hackers discover a larger interest in doing more with toilets then just what they were designed for in the first place. Within the "Internet of things" scene the sanitarian sphere claims a place of its own. This talk will present current projects, technologies used and research published.

This talk provides an overview of past and current hardware installations, services and publications that focus on the sanitarian territory. People track a wide variety of things: doors, water consumption, visiting times, paper usage and not to forget the habits of their pets. The range of implementations starts of with dedicated Twitter streams, exploratory websites and ends of with APIs, consumable services and extensive statistics which allow analysis over time. You will get to know the detailed installation architecture which allows building your own toilet tracking. Furthermore, the talk outlines the serious aspects of the Internet of toilets and its importance for the society. Hygiene facts and economic considerations are discussed. One of the motivations for this talk besides a general interest in the topic itself is the vision to realize such an installation for the congress in the near future (talking about 31c3).
