What is your opinion for the booth ?
I haven't thought about a design for the booth. Having at least one or two pedestal's would be nice. But a normal table would be useful as well to put some flyers on and to put a big flat panel screen. Also a normal rectangular table allows us to put stuff behind (like a computer or bags). Also one or two chairs for that table would be good as well to sit from time to time :)
Sorry, I have been swamped with work over the last two weeks, so I couldn't do any real thinking (or other stuff for CentOS) during that time.
Chairs are very very welcome :)
You can probably put stuff like bags behind the pedestals, a square table would be nice for giving people a chance to talk to each other.
Well, in the original mail the word 'podest' was used. I tried to look that up and found pedestal, which I'm still not sure what it is. Somehow I think it's a 'standing table' where people can hang at (at least I hope it is).
That's why I thought it would be useful to have a real table to put something behind. I will ask clarification from the organisation.
as you can see on the floor map [1], your booth (#35) has a 6,36m front. I thought about giving you two 50x50x130cm (width x depth x height) and one 100x50x130cm podest for putting 3-4 laptops on it. Is this fine for you?
So we have 2 m of pedestals in the booth, which leaves us 4x2 meters for talking with people - which probably isn't too bad. I'v been at the Fedora booth at Chemnitzer Linuxtag - and they could have used that space for in-depth talks.
Right. I'm going to make a drawing to have a better spatial view of the booth.
Should we discuss that on the mailing list? (Just to show some traffic there for the people who subscribed) >:)
I retrofitted it into the mailinglist without permission ! Man, I love the insecurity of SMTP to allow for that :)
