New Room at Acta
After WG-Terrein decided to take another tenant, the space behind the beamerwall got rented to us. This adds a nice size to the space and opens quite a lot of options on how to use it. Some discussions on how to utilize the space are happening as of writing and some ideas will be sketched out on http://wiki.techinc.nl/index.php/ActaRoom2 feel free to take a look.

CTF Team Update
TechInc's CTF team, the notorious Knuffelhackers, took part in the PHDays IV CTF Quals event which took place during the weekend of 25th and 26th January 2014. The fact that the team consisted of a small number of CTF rookies did not stop us from solving a number of challenges and scoring a decent amount of points. We were ranked 110th out of 627 teams world-wide and we were the 3rd highest-scoring Dutch team out of the 10 that took part in the game.
