HacktionCamp 2022 Workshops
The following is a list of workshop ideas and suggestions. Nerd gag measures how technical and jargony the session might be, from "on tight" being accessible to all, to "ungagged" being no-holes-barred tech talk. In the middle there's "breathing room" and "rather loose".
