If you give me your wiki login I can give you write access on the FrOSCon<br>
page. So you can add yourself and help with the organisational stuff.<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
My wiki account is MarcusMoeller. But my first question is: because Tim does<br>
not take part does not mean that the booth on FrOSCon is canceled?!<br>
</blockquote>
<br></div>
No, we only commit to a booth if we are certain we can keep it open (usually that means 2 or 3 persons guarantee to be present). If only one person commits to a booth, he needs to be there _all_ the time and that is practically impossible (depending on the kind of event).</blockquote>
<div><br>Okay. I could definitly take part. It would be great if someone else could spend some time at the booth.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

I could also provide a Desktop PC and a TFT for presentation. Maybe I can<br>
prepare some cool CentOS stickers.<br>
</blockquote>
<br></div>
That would be really nice. I would like to have 2 kinds of stickers:<br>
<br>
- stickers to put on the back of your laptop to promote CentOS</blockquote><div><br>I am going to work on these kind of stickers first. I think they should only show the CentOS logo and maybe the CentOS font. I will try out what looks best.<br>
</div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><br>
- small stickers to put below your keyboard to replace the Windows, Intel<br>
or Nvidia sticker. (CentOS Inside)<br>
</blockquote><div><br>These are special kind of stickers. Most case badges have a kind of metallic effect. I am going to ask a friend of mine who is preparing Ubuntu case stickers (<a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MassachusettsTeam/Projects/AluminiumCaseBadges?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=ubcd.png">https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MassachusettsTeam/Projects/AluminiumCaseBadges?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=ubcd.png</a>) and ask him if he could help us out.<br>
</div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><br>
However it is very important that for these stickers they do not damage the property. So it depends on the adhessive used.<br>
<br>
We do have a small budget (from media donations) that we can spend on this. If we want to go for a larger amount to drop the costs we have to ask the CentOS project for a budget. I would prefer the second option.</blockquote>
<div><br>I am going to sponser the first set of 'large' stickers. <br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
Also, I would not just give stickers away because people than take them. What we really should do is give a sticker only to people that can proof they are already running CentOS and/or if they put it on a computer in our presence.<br>
<br>
And if they want more than one, we can ask for a donation to cover our expenses. I think that would work quite well and introduce funny scenes at the booth.<div><div></div><div></div></div></blockquote><div><br>This could be an option, put I would suggest to give them away for about 0,50 EUR. That's what KDE did last year, too.<br>
