Debian Events Box
There is a Debian Events Box which can be requested from sylvestre@debian.org . It consists of an ASUS All-in-One EeeTop ET2011EGT and wired keyboard/mouse.
Virtual Events Box
While at DebConf 15 we have decided to revive the "Event Box" idea but with a different flavor. Provide a list of materials and sources for them so they could be reproduced locally (or from online vendors), and establish a HOWTO to help new exhibitors possibly with good ideas on how to setup an exhibit booth.
Interesting giveaways
- Temporary tattoos
- Laptop sticker
- USB sticks with Live version filled up with promotional materials. To offset costs - one side could include a sponsor logo (and possibly their marketing materials). Keep in mind local companies and local events
For Debian community members
- Lanyards with Debian logo (e.g. from debconf)
- Badge ribbons with e.g. "Debian Developer [logo]", or even more "informative": "Best Linux Distribution [Debian Logo]" etc
Booth setups
Carpet (tiles) with a logo (see e.g. NeuroDebian booth)
Exercise balls bearing logos for chairs (see e.g NeuroDebian booth)
TODO
Generate a repository collating all necessary materials for above items (banner designs, stickers, LIVE CD configuration, whatnot) so it is easy to use and update it.
Events to "participate" in
Especially if you already have exhibit setup available, it makes sense to participate in various possibly distributed events
