Hi all, Thanks to everyone who staffed the GNOME stand at FOSDEM! It was great to have so many enthusiastic volunteers. If you were there - how did you think the stand worked, and what could we improve for next time?
I thought our visual presence was pretty good, and the videos we showed on the demo machine were good. It was also really great to have information posted up about upcoming GNOME talks - that was a great idea. As was brought up on the list recently, I also thought it would be good to organise the stand around a more engaging activity. Friends of GNOME sign up was one idea there. Technical demonstrations was another. We could also do things like a GNOME Love/Hate board or a suggestions box or even a game that people can play at the stand. Any other ideas? The other thing I thought was that the stand would be better if we had more in the way of merchandise (pens, mugs, keyrings, usb sticks, a greater range of stickers, etc etc). We also need new banners (some of which are looking like they have seen better days) and a big GNOME tablecloth (I was also envious of the roll-up vertical banners that the other stands had). Do we know if there is room in the box for those things? Who has the box at the moment? Perhaps we could organise for it to be restocked?
