| - | ====== Welkom op de SNT-wiki! ====== | + | ====== Welcome to the SNT-wiki! ====== |
| + | |||
| + | You have arrived at the wiki of Studenten Net Twente. This wiki is meant for association-documentation. The docs are in part public, in part only accessible for active members. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Logging in ===== | ||
| + | As an active member you can login with your **LDAP** username/password. Make sure you fill these in //lowercase//! | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Translation ===== | ||
| + | The wiki is currently undergoing translation from dutch into english. Readers are encouraged to submit translations for popular documents. If you are non-dutch and have trouble reading a dutch page, feel free to ask someone from the board to translate. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== What is SNT? ===== | ||
| + | Mostly a bunch of nerds that really like computers. | ||
| + | Started in 1994, originally to facilitate internet on campus, SNT has now become an association with a 'hackerspace' vibe. A place where you can work, hang out with other nerds, and learn while playing with cool tech! | ||
| + | |||
| + | We run IRC, Matrix servers with thousands of users for the greater internet, and also a major FTP server serving a large part of the Netherlands. | ||
| + | |||
| + | SNT cooperates heavily with LISA, the UT's IT department. We can sometimes be found nagging about wifi speeds, IPv6 being broken, or other things, but most of the time it's just talk about interesting things IT. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Oh, and before I forget: SNT is also responsible for hosting over a 100 websites for associations and student houses throughout the UT through our free Hornet platform. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== SNT's goals ===== | ||
| + | * Deliver a secure, affordable hosting platform with support by students, for students | ||
| + | * Promote and implement open software throughout the university | ||
| + | * Have a safe, collaborative space for technical students to learn things outside the curriculum. | ||
| + | * Representation for students at the UT about everything IT | ||
| + | * Deliver services that are beneficial for the Dutch internet and thereby advertising the UT as an interesting place to study for smart technical students. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | /* | ||
| + | 1. Continuity & Knowledge Transfer | ||
| + | Why: Student orgs lose expertise quickly. | ||
| + | Possible goal: | ||
| + | Ensure long-term continuity of services through documentation, mentoring, and structured knowledge transfer between generations of students. | ||
| + | 2. Privacy, Ethics & Digital Responsibility | ||
| + | Why: Very relevant for IT students and aligns well with open software. | ||
| + | Possible goal: | ||
| + | Advocate for privacy-respecting, ethical, and transparent IT practices within the university and beyond. | ||
| + | 3. Community Building & Inclusion | ||
| + | Why: Technical spaces can feel intimidating or exclusive. | ||
| + | Possible goal: | ||
| + | Build an inclusive and welcoming community where students of all backgrounds and skill levels feel comfortable participating and growing. | ||
| + | 4. Practical Experience & Employability | ||
| + | Why: Big selling point for students and the university. | ||
| + | Possible goal: | ||
| + | Provide hands-on experience with real-world systems, preparing members for professional careers in IT and engineering. | ||
| + | 5. Innovation & Experimentation | ||
| + | Why: Differentiates SNT from “just” a service provider. | ||
| + | Possible goal: | ||
| + | Encourage experimentation with new technologies and architectures in a low-risk, student-driven environment. | ||
| + | 6. Collaboration & Partnerships | ||
| + | Why: Expands impact beyond SNT alone. | ||
| + | Possible goal: | ||
| + | Collaborate with study associations, research groups, and external organizations to strengthen the technical ecosystem at the UT. | ||
| + | 7. Transparency & Governance | ||
| + | Why: Builds trust internally and externally. | ||
| + | Possible goal: | ||
| + | Operate transparently, with clear decision-making, open communication, and accountability to our members and users. | ||
| + | */ | ||
| + | ===== Ongoing projects ===== | ||
