The Dipro Computer fair was coupled with a musical fair at the same location. The Ubuntu-be booth was located closed to the music part at a unfavourable location, but next to the booth of Computerclub C&T. There was not enough place for visitors to walk. The work was organized as follow : - 1 TV screen + 1 desktop at the beginning of the booth, with 1 or 2 volunteers at the corner of the booth (for an easier contact with visitors), to address the public attracted by the presentation (see wiki : Ubuntu_short_presentation-NL.odp), - 4 laptops and 1 PC All-in-screen, with 3 volunteers in front of the tables, giving explanations and demonstrations, distributing flyers and cd's ; - 1 volunteer at the other side of the booth for general control and security of the booth. Our booth (3 tables for the price of 2) was well adapted to our deployment. We lacked of depth back of the booth due to other booths material. We should ask the Dipro organization at least 3 tables and a better location (like at a wall and close to the main entrance). The booth was correctly decorated with table cloth, posters, flyers, plastic stands with A4 flyers. We improvised a kind of support to fix 4 posters as background of the booth. Working with laptop on the table is not easy when you and the visitor are standing in front of the table, we used 1 wooden box to elevate 1 laptop ( ± 30 cm high). We should find other easy solutions. There was no WiFi, nor internet connection. We distributed approximatively 200 flyers, 30 information sheets, 100 explanation sheet about live-cd's and 90 cd's Ubuntu 9.04 (+ a few other versions), always on request of interested persons and with explanation. With a stock of 15 original cd's and 20 home-burned cd's, we had to burn 80 cd's and used home-printed CD sleeves. We should prepare the fair by burning at home more cd's and printing decorated cd sleeves.
