The OpenAMD Project

Presented at The Next HOPE (2010), July 16, 2010, 6 p.m. (60 minutes).

The badge for The Next HOPE is the result of a collaboration of several people over the last 11 months. Hardware, software, social interactivity, and more. This panel will cover how the badge works, how we keep track of where you are at the conference, what cool games you can play, and perhaps some clues to a few of our kule s3cr3ts.
