Each year at AstriCon, we have an Open Source Pavilion which showcases projects which are adjuncts to Asterisk, or which are directly relevant to improving the utility and features of Asterisk. It gives smaller projects the chance to have some space to display what they're doing, and to give demonstrations to the AstriCon attendees who are interested in some of the things happening in the open-source ecosystem that surrounds Asterisk.
I'd like to mention that we have a few open spots in the Open Source Pavilion still, and I'd like to solicit ideas for people who would like to have the opportunity to put your OSS project in front of the AstriCon attendee audience. What your project should have: - No significant corporate sponsorship - Open Source License - Running code - Integration or usefulness with Asterisk, relevant to attendees What you need for the booth: - Banner of some sort, with your project name/URL - Single-sheet handouts (both sides, preferably) with information on your project (200-300 sheets) - A knowledgeable person staffing the booth at any time that the show floor is open - Hopefully some sort of demo or "hands-on" display What you get: - A 6' table on the Expo floor - Electricity - Wireless Internet access - Two chairs - A huge crowd of highly intelligent, curious people who want to know what you're doing - A pass for 2 for the expo (or a special discount rate if you want to upgrade to sessions) We have a very limited number of tables, though we hope to get many projects on board. There is a chance your project may not be approved even though it's the coolest thing since sliced bread - but we'll try to get as many people on board as possible. Please don't take it personally if we run out of space before we run out of project proposals! There are so many great OSS things out there, but so few square feet. :-) Please email me directly with your project details to be included on the list of applicants.
