LinuxWorld Conference & Expo - London Olympia 2
Posted by George Wright Mon, 11 Sep 2006 22:44:00 GMT
This year LWCE is slightly later - it’s on October 25th and 26th in Olympia 2 (as usual). However, so far nobody has actually put themselves down as a firm exhibitor to help out at the KDE booth. Last year only Ivor Hewitt and I pitched up to help so ideally I’d like to be able to get more people this year.
For those who don’t know what it is, we basically sit in a (rather nice) booth all day on the 25th and 26th and show off how pretty and functional KDE is to various attendees and hopefully increase the awareness of KDE in the corporate market. Last year we gave away a couple of hundred flyers and many, many Kubuntu CDs.
This year I’ve managed to get in contact with Canonical (those lovely people who do Ubuntu) and they’ve kindly offered to lend us a display machine with an LCD monitor for demo purposes. We have to pick it up from their South Kensington office but that shouldn’t be a problem.
I’m also going to place an order with the MWG to try and get things to sell there - mainly Konqis and shirts of various types. Booth gear I will pick up from Jonathan at aKademy in Ireland.
There’s an organisation page at the KDE UK wiki and if people who are likely to come could please add their names to the wiki I’d be very, very grateful.
