I was vaguely looking at in 2024, but I just saw their nonexistent policy at fosdem.org/2024/practical/covi and will now steer clear.

You'd think that geeks would be all over the opportunities presented by CO2 monitoring into dashboards, home-made Corsi-Rosenthal boxes and wearing cool masks, but apparently not.

@diffrentcolours That's a pity. 37C3 at least is giving out free masks and tests, and there is good uptake. There is CO2 monitoring, but mostly that just tells us that the ventilation is terrible.

@jmacarthur Yeah, monitoring empowers people not to turn up, but without contingency plans from the organisers it's not all that helpful.
