For what it's worth, I raised the question of the OSGeo booth on the board list several months ago, with little response- so most of the available volunteers that the UK chapter would have called on have been co-opted to help with other aspects of the event, and if you want the OSGeo stand properly staffed, you're going to need to organise this via the discuss list- we'll do what we can to help but we're all a bit stretched, as you can imagine! </div>

It's probably best if you send us specific links to the svn to the files you'd like printed out to avoid any confusion. Furthermore, if there's a generic OSGeo banner held somewhere in the EU that could be couriered to the venue, let us know, and we'll give you a delivery address.</div>
<div><br></div><div>As an aside for future events, I think there needs to be some guidelines for the LOC as to the staffing and provisioning of the OSGeo booth, to avoid these last minute panics- so that's one for the cookbook :-)</div>

It is likely that the English OSGeo Chapter has many of these
items, such as a pop-up banner which can be provided locally.<br>

Jo, do you know what local exhibition material is available?<div><div><br>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>The main issue that was raised on last week's call is that
we're not able to provide booths - only floor spaces. Our
ability to help arrange specific details (e.g. additional
equipment hire) is getting a bit stretched in these last few
weeks.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Will you need additional equipment, or will the OSGeo stall
all be shipped as pop-up banners that take care of themselves?</div>

I have been working with the organizers to get a booth. We
are<br>
confirmed for a Gold-level sized booth. I also submitted
location<br>
choices for the booth.<br>
<br>
I am tasked with organizing the booth. I will tomorrow put
together a<br>
wiki and distribute it to Discuss, and will also contact the
marketing<br>
committee for help for materials.<br>
<br>
What do you mean by concrete plan?<br>
