- Just what is "The Phoenix Project?"
-
- Definition: Phoenix (fe/niks), n. A unique mythical bird of great beauty
- fabled to live 500 or 600 years, to burn itself to death,
- and to rise from its ashes in the freshness of youth, and
- live through another life cycle.
-
- Project (proj/ekt), n. Something that is contemplated, devised,
- or planned. A large or major undertaking. A long term
- assignment.

- Why is "The Phoenix Project?"
-
- On June 1, 1987 Metal Shop Private went down seemingly forever with no
- possible return in sight, but the ideals and the community that formed the
- famous center of learning lived on. On June 19-21, 1987 the phreak/hack world
- experienced SummerCon'87, an event that brought much of the community together
- whether physically appearing at the convention or in spirit. On July 22, 1987
- the phreak/hack community was devastated by a nationwide attack from all forms
- of security and law enforcement agencies...thus setting in motion the end of
- the community as we knew it. Despite the events of July 22, 1987, PartyCon'87
- was held on schedule on July 26-28, 1987 as the apparent final gathering of
- the continent's last remaining free hackers, unknown to them the world they
- sought to protect was already obliterated. As of August 1, 1987 all of the
- original members and staff of the Metal Shop Triad and Phrack Inc. had decided
- to bail out in the hopes that they could return one day when all would be as
- before...
-
- THAT DAY HAS COME...
-
- A new millennium is beginning and it all starts on July 22, 1988. How fitting
- that the One year anniversary of the destruction of the phreak/hack community
- should coincidentally serve as the day of its rebirth.
-
- Announcing SummerCon '88 in (where else would you expect) St. Louis, Missouri!
-
- Knowledge is the key to the future and it is FREE. The telecommunications and
- security industries can no longer withhold the right to learn, the right to
- explore, or the right to have knowledge. The new age is here and with the use
- of every *LEGAL* means available, the youth of today will be able to teach the
- youth of tomorrow.

- SummerCon'88 is a celebration of a new beginning. Preparations are currently
- underway to make this year's convention twice as fun as last year's and the
- greater the turnout the greater the convention shall be. No one is directly
- excluded from the festivities and the practice of passing illegal information
- is not a part of this convention (contrary to the opinions of the San
- Francisco Examiner, and they weren't even at the last one). Anyone interested
- in appearing at this year's convention should leave mail to Crimson Death
- immediately so we can better plan the convention for the correct amount of
- participants.
-
- The hotel rooms purchased for SummerCon'88 are for the specified use of
- invited guests and no one else. Any security consultants or members of law
- enforcement agencies that wish to attend should contact the organizing
- committee as soon as possible to obtain an invitation to the actual convention
- itself.
-
- Sorry for the short notice this year...
