 Perhaps we can think of some things to present there?

OK - take it away guys :)

I agree that at this stage, a stand isn't as useful as a decent BOF -
register the BOF here: http://conferences.oreillynet.com/pub/w/46/bof.html

Also OSCamp sounds good, and worthwhile.

Cheers,
Dave.

  enough people to do something (if nothing else talk about Guadec

 I'll see about the possibility of a stand, if people are available to
 man it.
