<p>OSGeoLive folks,</p>
<p>An OSGeoLive USB is high on the swag wish list for the upcoming
FOSS4G-Oceania conference. We have a question below about whether
we can fit extra data on the USB (I suspect a 8 Gig or 32 Gig
USB). I know it has been done in the past, but am also aware that
creating bootable USBs quite an art.</p>
<p>Astrid, I think you have recently created USBs? Do you have any
advice to pass on (ideally collected in a wiki so we can share
with others).</p>
<p>Ben, Brian, Alex, Angelos, you have also provided good advice on
this in the past and might be able to chip in.<br>
</p>
<p>Cheers, Cameron<br>
</p>

<div dir="ltr">Re: USB stick, thanks Greg. There's an action item

with some idea of cost & effort involved, can you chase

<div>If we can get an agency to pay for it, sounds great to me.
We might need to discuss though, there has been some
resistance in this group against sponsorship of specific
initiatives, because of potential unfairness to sponsors we
already have on board, who haven't had the opportunity to do
so. But I don't think this is irreconcilable - just need to
have a proposal on the table I think, for proper context for
that discussion.</div>

<div>Question - can you technically put both the OSGeoLive and

and could be really fun swag for a geo
conference - we'd have to still design it
obviously... but probably this is not
possible as too pricey (although we could
explore costs for batch cost). But not
sure would anyone actually use it ...
actually if it was Melbourne specific I
think they would, people could draw on
it...and we can mark the relevant
buildings - we might need to provide a
wash-off-able (logo'd perhaps) pen too! We
could continue this with fun social media

the city! </p>

tea-towel design competition? i.e. Using
open data and open software design a map for
our "FOSS4G-Oceania" merchandise (merc as
this could go even beyond tea towels to
posters or flyers if we wanted). I think
this could be fun and could create some buzz
in the community before the conference ...
I imagine we could get some great entries
even from outside the immediate community.
And then it goes to public vote, or we (I)
can probably get some people together as a
panel of data vis /cartography / design
experts to critic and shortlist them first?
we could hae even different designs and
people get them at random - we might see
some swaps... </p>

like the idea of giving books to go with

still might be nice to have some relevant
books available to win if we have money
available - maybe a collection of different
ones and the draw happens in the few days
before the conference... Everyone with a
ticket gets the chance to win and then they
choose a book relevant to them when they get
there (first come first serve on choice).
(If people don't want a book then we get to
re-draw for prize winners).</p>

Maybe I’m a bit of an old man, but I
could always use of tea towels and
having one that reminds me of our
conference would be great!<br>
<br>
If someone can design a nice tea towel
using OpenStreetMap data and the
conference logo, I think it would make a
good speaker gift.<br>
<br>
It's a bit jarring to me as an item that
we put the Platinum sponsors logos on
though. </p>
