Why It Mattered

ZeTeCo fills an important smaller-European-camp gap: it shows that badge culture was not limited to the major CCC, Dutch, EMF, BornHack, or Fri3d lineages.

Hardware

The accessible public text supports a neck-worn ZeTeCo badge and a dedicated talk about how it was built. Detailed component claims are intentionally withheld until the talk or original design files are transcribed into sourceable text.

Software & Apps

No public source currently documents badge firmware, app store behavior, or programmable software surface for this entry.

Lore

The media.ccc.de description frames the badge through the practical work of manufacturing about one hundred PCBs, assembling bags, and giving campers something to wear around the neck.

Issues & Camp Impact

missing rights-cleared image note

No local ZeTeCo 2017 badge image is published because the accessible public sources prove the badge and camp context but no reusable original badge photo, official raster, or transcript-derived still has been recovered with source URL, license or permission basis, attribution, and processing notes.

The record stays source-backed and image-free rather than copying talk thumbnails, wiki media, crowdfunding images, attendee photos, screenshots, placeholders, or generated approximations.

Confidence: local project policy
Status: needs licensed original replacement
Timeframe: current catalogue build
Source note: badge.gallery image policy, media.ccc.de ZeTeCo Badge talk, ZeTeCo 2017 wiki archive, and wemakeit camp page.

source-depth caveat note

The badge is source-backed, but detailed component specifications and licensed original photos still need recovery.

The dossier avoids speculative hardware claims and withholds imagery until primary design files, photos, or a transcript are cleared.

Confidence: talk page and archived wiki
Status: needs transcript and original media recovery
Timeframe: post-event archive
Source note: media.ccc.de ZeTeCo Badge talk plus ZeTeCo 2017 wiki archive.
