[ available in a couple of hours ]
1. Storage Space
I forgot to tell you that there will be storage space at LinuxTag
for your bits which you don't want to store within the
booth. Behind the booths A62, A61, B62, B61, C62 and C61 is space
you can use. Behind D124 and D126 is space as well. These booths
will have doors to enter the storage.
Behind F41 and F43 is the unused part of the exhibition hall which
can be used to dump random stuff as well.
2. Table clothes
Tables at exhibitions look better and more serious if they are not
used naked but dressed with table clothes. You could use dark paper
clothes that are sold cheaply on a roll. I could also offer to take
white sheets ("Leinentücher/Bettlaken") with me whch can be used as
table clothes. They're about 2m wide and 1.50m deep. I don't plan
to take the entire box with me this time, though, so please drop me
a line if you want to use them. I'd appreciate if they won't get
too dirty.
3. Setting up the booth
It is probably not possible to enter the exhibition hall by car,
neither from the Ettlinger Straße nor from the Festplatz. However,
you can enter the Festplatz with your car to unload your
stuff. Upon entering, you'll have to pay a deposit of EUR 100 which
you will get back if you leave within a period of 60 minutes.
If you do so, please only dump your stuff at the booth and move the
car to a regular parking ground. Stray cars in the hall often block
the way in the hall and cause problems when they stay in the hall
too long.
The booths should be ready to use on Monday afternoon. Network
connectivity should be ready to use on Tuesday
afternoon/evening. On some booths it'll be ready on Monday already.
4. KaLUG Party
Don't forget the KaLUG Party which will take place on Thursday
evening at the AKK after the show. They will serve food and fluids
at cost price. It will be organised open air, so good weather is
guaranteed.
5. Social Event
If you plan to attend this year's social event please click on the
Social Event flag in the projects frontend so we get a proper
number of people interested. The tickets can be purchased and
fetched at the LinuxTag office at the entrance of the exhibition
hall at any time before Friday 17 o'clock.
However, since the number of reduced fee tickets is limited to 150
this year, only those who have raised the Social Event flag will be
able to benefit from the sponsored tickets. After 17 o'clock on
Friday, they will not be reserved for you anymore but will be sold
at normal price at the entrance of the Social Event.
Hence, please register if you want to attend the social event, and
please get the tickets in time so we don't run into trouble. For
details about the social event please see the [1]FAQ.

6. Workshops
The workshop schedule is pretty much filled up, so if you would
like to give a talk, presentation, workshop, hold a birds of a
feather session etc. which is not yet scheduled, please get in
touch with Joey as soon as possible so a slot can be reserved for
you.
Since the normal conference program will start at 9 o'clock this
year (we've had 10 o'clock as start time before), I've opened the
workshop rooms at 9 o'clock as well. This has introduced six more
slots that can be used.
7. Sleeping at the AKK
As it has been said before the space inside the AKK is filled
up. However, it is possible to sleep at the outside in the
grandstand which has a roof, and hence is dry even when it
rains. It'll mean that more people need to get through the showers,
though. As a note for breakfast: if the weather is fine you can eat
outside so the AKK Café is not filled up too much.
If you plan to use a tent near the AKK, please note that there is
no official camping ground and hence the tents have to be
dismantled at 8 o'clock in the morning at last. There will probably
nobody worry about tents during the night.
Since there will be a lot of people sleeping in/near by the AKK,
please help those who will host you.
8. LinuxTag WLAN
Partially independent of the projects network which ought to be
terrestrial again, there will be a couple of opportunities to get
to the Internet via wavelan:
The KaLUG will provide WLAN access in the Stadthalle, the
conference building. More information can be retrieved at their
booth in the same building.
4G systems plans to provide a WLAN mesh network in the exhibition
hall. Details are probably available at their booth (F103).
INKA e.V. is providing a certain part of Karlsruhe with gratis
[2]WLAN access which should incorporate the exhibition area as
well.

9. Internet Security
Please don't use any unencrypted network protocol with personalised
passwords that are transfered in plain text. If you do so, you'd
better consider your accound compromised after LinuxTag. This is
only a warning. LinuxTag e.V. will not be responsible for abused
accounts, especially not if the corresponding password was blowed
through the network unencrypted.
