Absolutely no, because in Zürich people speaking English are certainly welcome :-)

Of course, no problem, just try to tell us ASAP if you can not attend. We will anyway try to schedule more than one person at the booth for both days.

I'm thinking of writing a "Booth Howto" to be ready on the wiki for all. I vaguely remember something similar already existing on the Ubuntu wiki, maybe in the marketing aerea, will digg that tonight, promised.

But basically yes, we are the Ubuntu SwissTeam so we show people what Ubuntu (and its flavors) can do for them, hand out CDs, flyers, answer silly questions, spread Ubuntu Love and promote our favorite distro.

I don't know how much material we already have for the booth, I will update my "stock" tonight and we will have to check in the next weeks if we will place an order for swag, topic for next weeks IRC meeting IMHO :-)
