Re: GNOME at events

2010-05-18 Thread Stormy Peters
Running a booth is getting the GNOME event box, setting up the booth (pretty
quick process) and then making sure there is someone at the booth when the
exhibits are open. So how much time it would take would depend on how many
other volunteers you find there.

Maybe others who have organized a booth could chime in with their opinions.

Best,

Stormy

 I'm planning on going to Ohio Linux Fest. What's involved
 in running a booth? I've never done it before.

 I did submit a talk proposal, and I'd like to see others'
 talks. Would the booth take me away from the conference?

I've setup the GNOME booth at OSCON several times.  Over there it didn't
take a long time because we had a fairly minimal setup.  You'll need at
least 2 people especially if you have computers / laptop there.  It was
about 25 minute setup time wtih one poster, handouts, and setting up
computer.  Lugging the computer, getting the stuff printed out and other
pre-prep stuff I'm not sure.  It depends.

Re: GNOME speakers Events

2009-08-11 Thread Stormy Peters
Nobody has added them to the GNOME speakers page ...
http://live.gnome.org/GnomeEvents/Speakers

Please feel free to add others as well - people you think of doing a great
job speaking about GNOME.

I get lots of invitations to speak and I'd love to pass along some of them
to other GNOME fans and speakers ... while I can do this on a case by case
basis, I'd love to be able to point conference organizers and professors to
a page that lists all GNOME speakers, where they've spoken, any compliments
they've gotten, pointers to videos of their talks, etc.

Please help us represent GNOME! Be an official GNOME speaker.

 I was also thinking it would make sense to have a GNOME speaker's page with
 bios, locations and topics they can speak on, so I created a page[1].

 As we get more people signed up, I think it makes sense to organize by
 location. I've spoken to several computer science professors who would like
 to invite people near their school to be guest speakers.

 Please add yourself to the GNOME Speakers page[1].
