Subject: Re: Contest Details - "Crack Me If You Can" - DEFCON 2010

Hi,

Good news: Fyodor (of Nmap) will represent us at DEFCON.  So our
participation in the contest is for real.

I will proceed to setup the OpenVZ/Owl container for file exchange now.
If time permits, I might also configure it to submit our stuff automatically.

So far, our team consists of: Solar (coordination), Fyodor (at DEFCON),
and Rich (some password cracking).  Anyone else?

Please note that this is an opportunity to learn new approaches/tricks.
For example, if you don't know how to distribute the workload across
several machines/CPUs yet, you'll learn this from the rest of us.  So
please do join us!  This is primarily about community building; the CPU
power that you may add is very welcome but is secondary.
