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.

I would tend to agree with Sriram that a booth may not be the most productive 
use of our time at OSCON. I've just found out that they are also doing a 
BarCamp style unconference in parallel with OSCON called (wait for it.) 
OSCAMP. See http://oscamp.org - in particular 
http://oscamp.org/Call_for_Speakers - although BarCamps are usually 
unstructured plan-it-on-the-day kind of events.

Perhaps we can think of some things to present there?

Paul
