Red Hat Summit 2010 update

[Paul W. Frields]

This message is primarily directed at the North American Ambassadors.

As y'all probably know, the Red Hat Summit 2010 is coming up.  We have
a planning page on the wiki here:
  https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Red_Hat_Summit_2010

I wanted to put in a request for support, to consist of:

* Event box
* Vertical and hanging banners
* Any swag that would be appropriate

The audience at the Summit is quite large, usually well over 1,000
people.  We have USB keys already being provided which will include a
Fedora 13 Live image.  I'd like to make sure we have some of the
typical goodies to hand out as well.  I already have in hand the
mailing addresses we need for either an early or a late shipment to
the Summit, and can get those addresses to the appopriate people.

How should we proceed from here?

Paul

Hi Paul:

So I imagine that some of this stuff will leave direct from SELF on
June 13th - and Ben Williams or I can make sure it leaves directly.
There is FOSScon - which is June 19th, which might make for tight
shipping deadlines, and mean we want to use a faster shipping method,
or perhaps deploy one of the other event boxes.
Ben: It seems like we discussed this previously - is there already a
plan in place to make sure this stuff arrives at $summithotel before
the 22nd?

I have about 40 T-shirts set aside that I am planning on bringing for
this event, I can also bring what ever other swag I have with me
(stickers, window clings, etc) if needed.

I think it would be helpful, at least to me, to get some numbers. I
can also drag along some swag but at this point I have no idea what is
necessary. This seems a reasonable number of t-shirts for the event
but

Stickers?
Clings?
Buttons?
Case Badges?
Pens?

I need to get funding arranged no later than the next FAmNA meeting if
we need budget for anything. If we don't have any particular known
expenses I'll try to get some discretionary funds to help with
whatever might arise. If anyone does know of anything that we might
need to pay for please let me know now.

Thanks,
John

I've got a whole bunch of stickers & clings and I'm local, I'll try to
figure out how many. 

>  Buttons? 
I don't think I have anymore of these.

>  Case Badges? 
I might have a few.

>  Pens? 
Don't have any extra I don't think.

We had a conversation on IRC about swag and shipping, and it looks
like (including the above) we should be fairly well covered for
shirts, clings, case badges, and stickers.  We're working on pens, and
I think John Rose mentioned he was going to work on buttons.  John
also mentioned he has 300-400 pieces of media coming as well.

The banners and event box are coming up via the Mel-mobile.
