Past ideas
Topic suggestions are no longer carried over automatically, to speed-up the decision process. However, it might be interesting to revisit some past ideas at some point. Therefore, a collection of past ideas is maintained in this Sammelsurium.
Challenge Club
From time to time, we solve challenges together in the HackyHour. It is usually undesired to share solutions publicly, as it spoils the fun for other players. Therefore, we created a private repository where we collect our joint solutions. Just tell Markus if you want access.
