Hi.
Sorry for beeing quiet for so long, but I had some trouble with my systems
at home and didn't get to anything :(
Some things we should decide pretty soon is what we do with our booth,
since the Supply list is out now.
I'd recommend something like that with our booth:
#***
#***
###*
Where the #'s are Tables with Computers and the * is free space where we
can set up a small table and some tables for small discussions. We could
use one wall for the beamer and the others for Banners and shelves and so
on. There is also a lockable Table on the list, maybe we could use one of
them too.
What do you think?

I'm thinking of three GAIA computers (one to the "west" and two to the
"south") and one Server which we put under the Table. This way we have
enough space to present something. The Laptops could be used for more
personal discussions where you don't need so much people to look on the
screen, or as the computer to which the Beamer will be connected to.

Do you need any infrastructure from me? I could offer a P90 Debianized
Server (which seems to have some defective RAM currently, but I'm working
on it) and a 9-Port 10 MBit Hub and a 4-Port 100 Mbit Hub for the whole
thing. If GAIA has this equipment (I think it does), I would prefer it
though ... ;)

Maybe, I have to ask around...

Perhaps we should update Lucia's schedule page (where was it again) to
reflect the real times, where someone is at the Midgard Booth.

See above... We should order our Supplies soon, becaus it seams to be
pretty close to the deadline.

I agree, though I've no realy idea how to get to them. Perhaps we should
talk with Philipp Rotmann also, he has some more experience in this
sector.

If you need a hand, I can help also. Just drop me a mail.
