I read the following post on foundation-list@gnome.org...
Just to know... is there a similar plan a LinuxTag to better promote GNOME... is it related to FSFE's activities ?

Hello, GNOMErs.
As you may know, I, Bob Chassell, and Lisa M. Goldstein (the new FSF Business Manager) have taken over the various different aspects of conference and tradeshow planning for the Free Software Foundation.
Earlier this month, we reserved a GNOME booth next to the FSF booth for USENIX in Boston, which is from 25 June until 30 June 2001. These booths were donated by USENIX.
We have a number of people available to staff the booths who will be able to talk about the issues of software freedom. What we could really use from GNOME is a good hacker who can demonstrate GNOME well, and can talk about some of the technical details of GNOME. We could also use help with set up and break down of the booths themselves.
I know there are many GNOME hackers here in Boston, so perhaps one of you could come to the event. Please write to tradeshow-planning@gnu.org for the details.

You might try to contact Martin Baulig, who managed the FSF/GNU booths at the LWE and last year's Linux@work in Frankfurt including presentations of the GNOME project. afair his email address was martin@home-of-linux.org, but I'm not sure wether he's still using it as I didn't receive an answer when I tried to contact him because of a GNOME booth at this year's Linux@work. We could include a GNOME presentation at the FSFE booth, couldn't we?

Out of interest, did you get naked booth space donated or fully fledged booths with tables, chairs, a carpet, electricity, walls and eventually network connection?

I don't know about such details, since I only forwarded a quote from Bradley Kuhn's mail to the gnome foundation's list.
You may contact him directly at bkuhn@gnu.org for details.
