Booth Staff

Current planning includes 1-2 people at the booth, possible one in the morning, another person reinforcing over lunch, and one in the afternoon, thus 3 shifts and at least two people per day. Systems is 4 days, so we have 12 shifts (semi-days) to fill. If we assume everybody will do two shifts or more, we need at least 6 people.

The following people are volunteering to staff the booth (numbers of shifts and preferred days/times subject to change):

Booth Layout

Similar to last year, i.e. an infopoint for one poster and a notebook/desktop, see [http://people.debian.org/~mbanck/systems2008/Demopoint.pdf this] image.

Booth Hardware

Same machine as last year with a TFT brought by MichaelBanck.

Account name is "debian", password is "debian"; the debian user has sudo access, the root password is "debian" as well.

What to show:

The following needs to be done by somebody:

Booth personell can also bring their own notebook (only one will fit though), but in this case should create a default user and show the default Debian desktop as well usually.

Booth Decoration

Possible stuff:

Name Plates

Booth staff should have name plates. Usually, it is easy to gather plastic name plate bags with some sponsor's keychain. Somebody (volunteers?) needs to print the name tags though.

CDs

To be determined.

Merchandise

Tickets

We will likely get a small amount of exhibitor passes, which are transferable.

Booth staff who get free tickets through other means (e.g. as promotion from computer magazines or through their university or employer) should use them if possible.

Otherwise, boot staff people can obtain a ticket ID [wiki:DebianEventsDeSystems2008Tickets here], which can be used to get a ticket vouchre [http://systems.de/de/Home/besucher/ticket-preise/online-ticket-registrierung here].
