Hello Alain and everybody,
<<<
Are we sure that the target public is well reached at
a central booth ?
It is better to think about effective (real life) ways
to contact people :
...
>>>
I agree, but if we have the possibility, nothing is
wrong by doing both.
Do not forget, an exhibition like "LinuxWorld Expo",
will atract a different audience than a booth at your
local library.
At this exhibition, we will have the possibility to
reach LUGs for example.
We will be able to provide them more info and to
reassure them that we exist and LDD is important.
It is not another dying vaporware project.
Our sponsor, will be overthere too.
Actually the whole "crowd" iterested by Linux,
including Intel and IBM will be at the show.
By beeing there, we will be able to reach some
influential people and have a "professional"
discussion/appointment that would be hard to get
otherwise.
If we speak well, others sponsors, will want to be
part of LDD.
So, we need both, if we can aford it.
<<<
If we want to interest somebody, we must provide real
life information, easy to put into work on real life
hardware.
>>>
I agree. This is why, we will have the LUGs table at
LDD.
I also agree on your school "picture", except, We need
more Linux software for schools.
I do some work with some schools. One of the main
issues, no software seems to exist yet, for some
schoolworks.
I am thinking of regular schools not Universities.
They may need a software simple as to learn the
irregular verbs.
<<<
I am writing a menu generator, to provide the
equivalent of the KDE menu remotely.
>>>
Good work !
Perhaps, we should have a place to post such similar
help.
It is similar to the Samba suggestion.
Eugene
