 As Joey already said, I don't think this would be a problem. Most of the
 visitors will speak english and hopefully the suisse romandie will be
 present as well. You even speak two of the official languages of
 Switzerland!
 
 Please add you availablility to the wiki page.
 
  Gaudenz, do you know if it is possible to staff the booth on Tuesday,
  March 24th?  I could come to Bern and help you on Tuesday afternoon,
  then go back to Genève (I must be there on Wednesday morning) and be at
  the booht on Thursday, helping packing/cleaning everything once the expo
  will be done.
 
 Could you be there on Wednesday afternoon? You could sleep at my place
 if you want.
 
 AFAIK it would be possible to set up the booth on Tuesday. I don't know
 if it's needed for such a small booth though.
 
 With Luca, Marc and myself we are nearly there to have enough personel for
 the booth. Martin, Didier or Daniel could one of you be there on
 Wednesday? As a special plus there is a party (last time with free Free
 Beer) on Wednesday evening.
 
 Gaudenz

Hi all, 

I am planning to be there for the two days, and I might need accomodation 
(maybe 
I'll come back home for the night. I'll keep Gaudenz posted.). I will leave on 
the 25. at ~ 16h00 to be in Vevey at ~18h00.

Sorry for answering that late, I was pretty busy these days. Looking forward to 
see you there !

Best regards, 

OdyX

Thanks for working on the poster. However I think this poster is too

visiting our booth. 

I was also looking for a suitable poster to print. I was thinking about
updating Joeys general overview poster [1]. Perhaps I have some time

 So please put your name on the wiki page if you are able to help

OK, we now have enough people to staff the booth with at least 2 persons
at any time. But this only works if Marc also comes on Wednesday morning
and if I myself and Luca both take 3 shifts... 
So I'm still looking for additional volunteers.

Proposed shift plan:
Wednesday 24.3. morning: Gaudenz and Marc
Wednesday 24.3. afternoon: Marc and Luca
Thursday 25.3.: Gaudenz and Luca

Luca, you added a comment on the wiki that debian.ch will bring
foilstickers and t-shirts. Do you bring them or is someone else taking
care of this? Where is the merchandise atm?

  Hi
  
  As discussed at the debian.ch general assambly in December last year I
  applied for a booth at OpenExpo[1] in Bern. The booth was approved some
  weeks ago and as it's now about 1 month to the conference we should
  organize the event a bit more in detail.
  
  We need at least 2 persons manning the booth for both days (=4
  person*days). Additionaly someone needs to organize the merchandise and
  other stuff for the booth. For more information on how the conference
  organizer expect us to present the project see [2].
  
  If we provide a poster as a PDF document ready for print until the 17.3. the
  organizer offers to print this on A0 for us (at no cost). Is someone up
  to design a poster or is there already a poster design for Debian we
  could reuse?
  
  Everybody who want's to help and especially ppl who are able to help
  staffing the booth should reply to this mail until next Wedensday 24.2.
  
  I'm away over the week-end, so don't expect any replies until Monday
  from me. If anyone want's to setup wiki pages on wiki.d.o and announce
  the event on the relevant project pages, please do so. If nobody does it
  I'll take care of this on Monday.

Most of the T-Shirts and all foilstickers are at Axel's (cc:ed).  I sent

I can bring it, but since there is the possibility to have a free

I can take care of this item, but before starting to work on a design

An attempt is available at:

It is basically the work of Kevin Mark, S. Müller, M. Schulze, G. von
Brederlow, M. Krafft, F. Küster and J. Mouette back in 2005.  The

  http://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2009/01/msg00148.html

I simply removed the written title in the upper part of the image, since
it was not clearly visible.

Kevin (or any other author above): which license does it apply to your
image?  And do you have any SVG or other vector version available?

Michael: I have included a copy of your blog post on my people.d.o space
above, is it OK for you?

I would add that even if this is maybe not anymore the situation, the

should be a very good reading on an A0 poster.  Am I too naif?

Hi,
If you go to here[0] I have a DIA source file. At the time, I just read all the
info from the Debian site, details from my own use of Debian, and started to
ask lots of questions on the Debian-devel list. I did not ask for any formal
permission as I did not know if that is what would have been required and at
the time I was just making it for personal use. I felt that I should at least
add some of the names of some of the people who I asked. I also tried to add
attribution to the quotes in the diagram. I guess I have not formally thought
about the license but I do want to use a copyleft license. Maybe CC-BY? 
Hope its useful.

Since Debian is an international project, it should not be a problem
not speaking the native language of the location the booth will be in.
As long as your not the only one at the booth.  Our developers speak
English and most of our community knows that Debian is international
and that not everybody speaks their own native language.  Personally,
I always appreciate international Debian people at Debian booths.
