Aude is asking us if we would be able to staff a booth there, to present Inkscape to students and small businesses.
This would be cool, we had a lot of fun manning the booth at SCALE. Who might be interested in staffing this one?
- So far, Mihaela, Marc and myself (they replied to this thread). One or two more German speakers would be nice.
Also, at SCALE we realized we need to do better at booth provisioning. We should have some stock brochures, stickers, etc. that we can easily get printed and shipped to events. Since it sounds like this may be a more modest scale of an event, perhaps it could be a good opportunity to trial run a few things? What do you guys think?
- I don't expect we'll manage the brochures in time (but if anyone wants to finish them up, they'd be very welcome! Mihaela started working on one here: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/vectors/general/issues/28 ), but we can certainly do stickers, and I would like to have a rollup banner available.
Ryan still needs to share the data for the rollup banner that was used in the US, though - if we had that, it would be easy to make one. We would use the https://gitlab.com/inkscape/vectors/content/tree/master/media folder in our repository for saving it. Just needs to be uploaded (and funding for rollup approved by board, or taken from the preapproved amount, of which I remember that it was for last year, though).
I have test-ordered a couple of stickers (see photo: https://framadrive.org/s/ir3kN4TZK4gN7GB), but they didn't turn out as nice as the ones Chris made (they seem to be printed with a lower resolution (photo compression makes it hard to see, though), and 'silver foil' is something different, too - and of course, they lack that bit of creative skill. They're very durable, though, I believe.).
At least I now know what type of data I need to send when printing white on silver, and making cutting lines :)
The sheet itself cost 2,84 €, corresponding to roughly 7 eurocent per sticker. Machine adjustment was 8,20 €, though. More sheets are cheaper.
I'd prefer Chris' stickers, though, if we can manage to get some of them over here in time.
So Q1: Shall I confirm the dates as written above?
Unless anyone has concerns, this has a +1 from me on the dates.
- Thanks :)
