 Having someone who is living in Berlin at the booth was a definite
 advantage in 2008. Make sure we have Paul and Pierre on board again.

Sorry for replying this late. If you need a helping hand, I would like
to give you one or two. Just drop me a message.

Bests,

I hope to build something similar for M2A-VM boards. The pinout and my
multimeter measurements certainly look favourable.

Ah yes. A generic top hat flash PCB with two or three jumpers would
probably handle almost every soldered LPC/FWH chip out there.

 Zero frustration so far!
   

Nice.


 If everything goes well, I'll have external flasher support ready
 in flashrom before LinuxTag. That would certainly be an interesting
 way to exhibit flashrom.
 

 Yes indeed! Do you think you'll make it to Berlin this year to show
 it off yourself? :)
   

I hope so, but my budget and university deadlines keep suggesting a
no. No idea about the final decision yet.


 It would be great to have some external programmers there! And if
 there's a simple, proven design we might even be able to sell it
 cheap in the booth.
   

Yes, that would be an awesome way to raise funds. Another possibility
would be to sell pre-modded M2A-VM. (Or my top hat flash for these
boards if that works out.)


 I have mentioned to the expo organizers that we could be interested
 in a booth (or sub-booth) for flashrom as well, but it depends on how
 much staff we can organize. If only a few people can help out at the
 expo I think it's better to stick with a single booth and dedicate a
 part of it to flashrom. (Will still make sure to mention flashrom to
 the expo organizers though, so that it gets it's own info in the
 printed expo material.)
   

Actually, I'd prefer to have flashrom+coreboot at one single booth. That
way, nobody has to be sent to another booth if one question is too hard
for one of our staff.

Carl-Daniel

Thanks for organizing this! I hope the interactions with LinuxTag and

 If you have any ideas about something fun that we haven't tried at a
 booth before, or if there is something in particular that you would
 like to see, and of course certainly if there is something that you
 would like to prepare yourself, I would love to hear about it!

 Everyone who has a chance to make it to Berlin should make sure to
 come check the expo out! LinuxTag is a fantastic opportunity to meet
 others who are active in or interested in open source software. Lots
 of fun! :)
   

Yes indeed.

Regards,
Carl-Daniel
