Hi,
Maria (cc'ed) is designing the lanyard badges for Flock. We are not sure
of the exact info you'll need / want on the badges, logistically.
Here is the ticket for the design work; it includes photos of
Flockchester's and Prague Flock's badges as well as other conference badges:

One issue we have up front is that we think it's important to include
the "get help" info on the back of the badge. Rochester Flock had Ruth,
Josh, and Tom's cell phone numbers and emails. Are they still the people
to list for help, or are there other people we should be listing as
those who can help?
Ok, beyond that issue, here's a list of basic info we can put into the
design, then a bucket of extras. We'd like to know what info is most
important to you and what can be dropped from the badge:
Front of Badge Essentials:
---------------------------
- Attendee Name
- Attendee custom badge line
Back of Badge Essentials:
--------------------------
- link to
sched.org schedule
- "Get Help" info (#flock-help, phone numbers / emails)
- conference website (
flocktofedora.org)
Other possible data to include:
------------------------------
- Attendee class (speaker / attendee / organizer? color-coded?)
- Meal selection (special dietary needs?)
- wireless access point SSID / access info (do we have this?)
- Attendee social media handle / IRC nick
- Attendee FAS id
We're planning to have the badges of registered attendees pre-printed,
and have some blank badges that can be filled out with marker at the
event. So whomever is running registration will need a sharpie (and
potentially blank labels in case sharpies don't stick to the badge
lamination.)
Any guidance / advice greatly appreciated.
