Wake up Folks ... :-)
Here is a list of things that we need for the Fosdem ... Add your item to the list if i forgot something ;-)
- Flyers (after a discussion with Dag, it seems we have still enough.
Dag : how much ? and can you bring them ?)
There are plenty of flyers. I think at least 500, not sure though. We have been using the same supply now for a year.
I also have a stack of flyers here. But if we need a new flyer it isnt a problem getting it printed ... the problem will be artwork changes and content.
- Posters : the ones we used last year seems not usable anymore (iirc
they were used also for the Linuxtag). is it possible to have newer ones ?
Definitely. But I think we won't have any in time though, especially if we want to have them cheap and make money out of them. The design could take some time that we are lacking.
I made the ones we had last year - and can do the same again .
- Flag ? we discussed last year about the fact of having a CentOS flag
that can be exposed on a wall/on the booth itself. Maybe this could be considered as an investment (lasts longer than a paper poster i think) .. but that's just my opinion ... ideas ?
A flag would be great and is probably doable to have before FOSDEM. I am probably going to buy one myself for the events where I promote CentOS.
What do you mean by flag ??
Do you mean flag or banner ?> Flags are attached to flagpoles ... Boy scouts use them a lot ...
My only concern is the current SVG that is used for most of the artwork is still not perfectly symmetrical. I made one which was symmetrical, but that one had not the same dimensions (lines were less thick).
I am sure you are being too fussy :)
- Stickers: I really want cheap stickers with the logo, CentOS and maybe a
slogan. In the worst case only the logo and CentOS. I would like to have bigger ones (to put on the back of a laptop) and smaller ones to put on other surfaces.
We could do a sheet of diferent sized stickers - but time may not be on our side for that.
- Budget: All of the things we have mentioned needs a budget. We now that
facturing them is cheaper in bigger numbers, but without a real budget we cannot estimate how much we want to invest. (yes, we have to invest in promo)
Well tell us how much these things are going to cost ....
