Brisbane InstallFest Update

[Jared Norris]

Good morning all,

Just a quick update to let you know I've gone ahead and requested some
resources from Canonical for the InstallFest in January. We've been
given a Conference Pack A as well as being able to secure the Approved
LoCo Banner & Tablecloth [0]. These resources will allow use to
include small gifts for everyone installing Ubuntu on the day. To this
end I've revised my poster [1] as well as including some feedback.
Unless anyone objects I think we need to move focus from creating
these posters to distributing them. Other members have added their own
banners to the page [2] so fee free to print out whichever one suits
your needs best and let's get promotiing. We don't want to be standing
around talking to ourselves on the day so we need to spread the
information as far and wide as possible.

Looking at the pack my logic would indicate we could probably give out
the pin badges to the first 20 people to install Ubuntu on the day and
then after that work through the lanyards. I have NO idea how many
people we'll have but I'm also proposing we raffle off the tshirts &
hats included along the lines of first prize of a tshirt and hat,
second prize the tshirt, third prize the hat. Raffle entry would be
limited to either anyone installing Ubuntu or anyone signing up to the
team, I'm open to ideas here. These ideas aren't set in stone so I'm
open to other thoughts that might help promote the team and Ubuntu
better.

I have updated the wiki planning page [3] and I will be sending emails
out to the HUMBUG and Linux Australia mailing lists in the next day or
two. If you know you're going to be available on the day please add
yourself to the roster [4] and if you're bringing along some gear
please let us know [5] (add more columns if you need to).
