Help Khan Fu Grow
Donation protected
Hello!
For the past seven years, I've been putting schedules for DEF CON online at khanfu.com in a simple, easy-to-use interface optimized for mobile phones.
It started as a set of static files on a server somewhere, and quickly grew into more generalized client / sever model. The idea was (and remains) that it'd be great to have a single place to go for conference schedules.
Since its debut, Khan Fu has provided mobile schedules for over 70 different events, under 14 different conference banners (including more than 20 different Security B-Sides conferences).
Originally supported by @dtjedi and others, Khan Fu has been run exclusively by me since 2012.
Fortunately, expenses are low: Under $500 a year for hosting, and whatever I can carve out of free time to update the data.
It takes a few hours to get the data loaded in for most conferences, and occasional checks of the schedule to collect last-minute changes.
Unfortunately, I've been unable to really improve the service. The long-term goals have hardly changed since I first skecthed out the feature set in the summer of 2009. Your contribution will help me to dedicate time to improving and building Khan Fu into the service it was always meant to be.
Please, don't feel that you're expected to contribute. Khan Fu has always been, and will always be, free to the community to use. It's here to make your lives easier. Just knowing that you're using it and appreciate the effort is thanks enough.
But if you'd like to thank me more directly, and to help encourage and support growth of Khan Fu, your donations are sincerely and deeply appreciated.
Thanks, and see you at the con!!
