  1. Paul will be around as much as humanly possible. He has a session to give on Wednesday morning but will be basically available other than that. He is required to meet with press, customers, and partners as needs arise, but will try and conduct as much business as possible at the booth.

Live USB keys

Paul is arranging this with the Summit organizers at Red Hat. The goal is to provide each Summit attendee with a 2 GB USB key with Fedora 11 (plus updates) installed. Red Hat might include other materials the Summit organizers want to distribute in a folder outside the Live image.

Other freebies

Live CDs
We may want to also provide Fedora 11 Live media at the event in the form of CDs. The Summit attendance is usually quite high, around 1400 people in 2008.
Other inexpensive schwag
Other paraphernalia would be a good idea, especially stickers, tattoos, case badges, and so on. (Other low-drag ideas? --stickster 17:55, 14 July 2009 (UTC))

Stand-up banners

The booth should have the new stand-up banners installed if possible. (Do these already exist, and can they be shipped to/from the event? --stickster 17:55, 14 July 2009 (UTC))
