1. Booth Plans I need to make final booth arrangements at the upcoming weekend. Hence, if you haven't provided a description for your project and haven't noted anything that boils down to what you want to demonstrate at the booth and how, I cannot provide a booth as I cannot guarantee the visitor that there will be a proper presentation. Friday afternoon would be the last chance for anything. At 6 p.m. the gavel bangs. 2. Fees It has come to my attention that a lot of people haven't noticed yet that LinuxTag requires an admission fee this year which cannot be bypassed by registering through the website. The prices (one day EUR 15, two days EUR 25, all days EUR 35) are listed on the [1]LinuxTag site accompanied by an official explanation. 1. http://www.linuxtag.org/typo3site/eintritt.html The exhibitor passes for project booth members will continue to be free of cost (or at least that's what Joey is trying to achieve one way or another). However, the exhibitor passes are not meant as an excuse for regular visitors to save the entrance fee. Please don't abuse this and don't add random visitors as booth staff if they don't actually belong to your booth. I've already fought a fight against a special fee for project members, so please don't let me down. 3. Posters In order to build a well organised and informative booth, please don't only prepare to dump machines and monitors at the booth. Instead think about how you could serve the visitors best by setting up an informative booth where they can get all information they're seeking. One way to improve the quality of your booth is to use large posters on which the visitors are informed about the contents of the booth. This requires a bit of organisation and time before the event but will actually pay for a well found booth. Such posters can easily be placed on the walls with adhesive tape. For printing, many universities provide a possibility to print large posters (A0, A1) at cost price. If you need this, you should try to get in touch with the computing center or the physics department. The printers often understand PostScript which is generated quite easily by LaTeX with this [2]class from Peter Ganten and [3]documentation by me. 2. http://www.infodrom.org/download/fancyposter.tgz 3. http://www.infodrom.org/download/poster.ps.gz Regards, Joey -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
