1. Wavelan Planning: Access Points
Our Wavelan expert anticipates problems when you hook your own WLAN
access point to the network. Therefore, I'd like to ask and urge
you not to do this without prior negotiation with Henning
Wackernagel, who is reachable through our office at the LinuxTag.
If you have an access point of your own that you would like to
drive during LinuxTag, in order to help gate the booth lan into the
wlan and/or to improve wlan accessability, please come to our
office first and talk to Henning.
2. Wavelan Planning: Gateway
If your project anticipates problems or is unable to to connect the
booth lan to the exhibition wlan, please get in touch with me so we
can discuss the problems with Henning and fix them before LinuxTag,
which should save us a lot of grief and pain next month.
Also, if you are unable to connect your booth lan to the exhibition
wlan due to missing equipment, please also drop me a line so we can
see if Henning can acquire backup machines for this task.
3. Press Releases
I have been told that LinuxTag is able to publish press releases
and use their channels for some projects if you have important news
to announce. Proper news for such press releases would be "Debian
3.1 released" or something similar or less ground-breaking. If you
believe that you would like to use this service, please get in
touch with Joey for details before the event.
4. Organisation of Lifts
Since I've seen questions from people looking for a lift to/from
LinuxTag with or without computer cargo, I guess that I should
information about the organisation of shared lifts. Some people are
even going to Karlsruhe daily (they live less than 100km near
by). If you are looking for others to carry with you or if you are
looking for somebody who can give you and your equipment a lift, it
may be worth looking at and writing to the [43]FahrGemeinschaften
Wiki page.
5. Social Event
Finally, it has been sorted out where the social event will take
place an what it will cost. This year's social event, which is
usually a quite amazing mixture of suits and shirts, will take
place in the [44]substage, a closed underground crossing. For booth
staff the price per ticket is EUR 15, for regular visitors and
non-project staff the price per ticket is EUR 25. The ticket
includes some food and regular fluids (non-alcoholic, beer, wine).
All people who are registrated to the [45]system can use the
reduced fee. If you are interested in attending, please mark the
option field for social event in your personal data (Edit
person). When you arrive at LinuxTag, please drop by at the office
where you can pay and fetch the tickets from my collegues or me.
Best regards,
Joey
