Hi all,
the LinuxTag in Karlsruhe is approaching fast and our booth coordation volunteer, Volker Dormeyer, needs to know who (or at least how many) is coming from which country/association in order to organize the timetables for the booth, give specifics about demand of space and organize for sleeping places for those who need them.
This is a lot of work and we should try to make it as easy for him as we can!
Therefore I just created a new mailing list for booth coordination purposes,
booth@fsfeurope.org
with a web interface at
http://mailman.fsfeurope.org/mailman/listinfo/booth
which is administrated by Volker.
This list will be dealing with all the practical issues of organizing booths for the various tradeshows throughout Europe.
Would someone from every associate organization (ideally those who plan to/think about coming to Karlsruhe) please subscribe to that list and let Volker know what he needs to know to organize the booth?
Regards, Georg
P.S. A few more thoughts about booth@fsfeurope.org:
Since it will probably see occasionally high traffic, I suggest we do not have volunteers permanently subscribed to it, it probably makes more sense to have an additional booth-volunteers list, on wich volunteers would only receive calls for volunteers so they can subscribe to booth whenever they want to get involved in a specific event.
Still: I would like to ask at least 1-2 people from each of our associated organizations to remain permanently subscribed to booth just in case and to remain on top of the issues.
