[Marketing] Linuxtag --- Summary

[Simon Schampijer]

Hi,

just a few words on what worked out well and what did not at Linuxtag.

* Balloons: Having the booth equipped with balloons is great! It makes 
it well visible, you have something to hand out and it fits well with 
the Sugar itself.

* Flyers: we used the same flyers we had last year. Good flyers are a 
must have for every booth. [1]

* XOs, Sugar machine: It is great to have XOs at the booth. They are 
still a big attraction. However it makes sense to have other machines 
around running Sugar to make that clear (we had one big non XO machine 
with Sugar).

* Sugar on a Stick: We did not manage to have Sticks available in time. 
The once I have ordered I had difficulties flashing them. I think 
selling sticks at the booth for a fair price is a great thing. From 
asking people, they seem to be happy to pay 10-20 Euros for it.

Sean, thanks for the banner from last year. It served very well at this 
years Linuxtag, too.

Thanks to everyone involved,
    Simon
