OpenEmbedded booth

Manning

You are going to FOSDEM and can spend some time at the OpenEmbedded stand to explain interested individuals the virtues of OpenEmbedded? Add your name and on which day you'll be available.

  • Paul Eggleton (Saturday, Sunday)
  • Philip Balister (Saturday, Sunday)

Tasks

A bunch of tasks need to be carried out to make our attendance a pleasant experience. Each task needs a volunteer who is willing to help.

Event box

The OE event box is being graciously brought to the event by Florian.

Florian would like someone to take this back with them if at all possible. Volunteer - ?

Device Tags

People standing in front of our booth often want to know what kind of device it is that blinks so funnily. ;) We could make things easier by being able to print small tags providing some information about board manufacturer, CPU, RAM and what its relation to OpenEmbedded is.

Volunteer: ?

Devices

  • Paul Eggleton - either FRI2 or Intel NUC

Flyers and posters

You can bring and/or print OpenEmbedded flyers and posters? Add your name and what you'll bring.

  • Stickers! - Philip

Power extensions, adapters and other stand material

Bringing devices is cool but we need a way to bring power to them too. Additionally people might need power sockets for different systems than the european one. List your name and what stuff you can bring.

  • Presentation file for use on the display - ?
  • Machine to connect for displaying the presentation - Paul

Hotels

Although FOSDEM itself takes place at the ULB campus, most folks prefer to stay nearer the city centre.

The Astrid has traditionally been the default choice for OE developers, though there are many other hotels in the area. If you are staying in a hotel other than the Astrid, feel free to add it to this section for the benefit of others. Recently, most of us stay at the Saint Nicolas due to the free breakfast and wifi.
