Stand for FOSDEM

[Philip Balister]

Does someone want to take the lead applying for and organizing the stand 
for FOSDEM this year?

https://fosdem.org/2013/call_for_stands/

The application is due next Wednesday.

I volunteered to do this at the GA, so I can do it. I'll definitely need some 
assistance though (esp. with regard to getting the gear to the venue).

Cheers,

Plan to be there.
Hopefully I should be able to arrange another Atmel raffle,
to draw people to the stand.

Do we have any plans for demo's?

That would be awesome!

Nothing solid yet, but thinking about it I'd like to have something around 5 
devices on show, preferably showing the range of different targets we support, 
and ideally the each of them should be doing something interesting. I'm going 
to try and bring along an x86-powered device, and have access to various other 
devices although I'm not sure I can come up with demos to run on each so 
suggestions/help would be welcome. 

For the last FOSDEM, Alex Lennon was kind enough to bring along his radar 
detector that was powered by OE, and I think that worked quite well as a demo. 
If at all possible it would be great if we could not just have dev boards but 
some actual products powered by OE on the stand. Can anyone help with that?

We probably also want to be prepared to do demos of configuring / running a 
build, with the usual assumption that we might not have a reliable internet 
connection. I think I can take care of setting this up.

Cheers,
Paul
