We already talked about this last year (when the box had
'UPS-disappeared') and think it is not convenient for Asia due to
transportation mode and troubles with the customs from country to
country. Eventually one per country could make sense (we need to see
where events happen) and should we move forward with this option I
believe GNOME.Asia Summit should be able to provide funding for it. I
think we'd like to have committed people in those countries with event
box before moving forward though.

Thank for thinking of us.

I think it makes sense one per event box. We have three, one i
 America and two in Europe. BTW, we can also think about 
moving one from Europe to Asia.

AFAIK, openSUSE is the first one, 11-14 September.

I agree we should order one. The one we ordered for Kids on Computers turned
out really well.

When's the next event? Perhaps we could order and ship there? The Boston
Summit? SuSE conference?

Hi !

So what's the status of the custom tablecloths ? Were they made and stored in 
the event boxes ?
If not, we should because the design it's cool and a tablecloth is very 
convenient :-)

Would someone be willing to design and order two GNOME table

with the word GNOME in white on a green table cloth.)

Do you think if this banner can be considering?

Or may I can try to design another one, if this is not fit. Since I 
already drafted some design stuff for GNOME visual identity during my 
internship. So I wish it can come in handy someday:)

I love the idea!
The shadows might be a bit of an issue to print on fabric, and it might 
be good to consider another color than white for the background, as it 
can get dirty (especially from coffee stains) quite quickly.

Apart from that, great stuff!

I agree with Calum.

gnome.org uses the tag line 'We make great software available to all'.
The material on the about page [1] might also be relevant.

Great idea and great graphic.

Would love to see a11y added to the graphic but that's probably just

It's a great idea.

However, I'd check beforehand whether it's actually possible. At least
the new box is (or was last time I've see it) very tightly packed
already and I doubt that a table cloth will fit.
