Flights to Brussels from within Europe are usually cheap, as are hotels in Brussels during the weekend. Really, you could send someone to Brussels over that weekend, say from Oslo, for less than 500 Euros. ciao Michael (who will be @ FOSDEM, too) From michaelh at openismus.com Wed Jan 2 10:37:08 2013 From: michaelh at openismus.com (Michael Hasselmann) Date: Wed, 02 Jan 2013 10:37:08 +0100 Subject: [Marketing] FOSDEM Qt Stand manning In-Reply-To: <1357119178.3668.4.camel@brick.WAG160N> References: <50D7BAB7.9030004@4link.co.uk>

Yes - it is not more of budget pertaining specific to this event, but planning for our whole roster of events Digia will be at for 2013. Our key issue atm is freeing up resources.

If by resources you really mean people then how about this: Take over my travel costs (less than 500 Euros) and I'd be happy to wear a Digia head some of the time, too. Could even man the Qt booth for some time. I am sure there are others on this list who would happily take over for you (that is, Digia) if only you pay their travel expenses and send the marketing material to Brussels. ciao Michael From Katherine.Barrios at digia.com Wed Jan 2 11:08:43 2013 From: Katherine.Barrios at digia.com (Barrios Katherine) Date: Wed, 2 Jan 2013 10:08:43 +0000 Subject: [Marketing] FOSDEM Qt Stand manning In-Reply-To: <1357120305.3668.9.camel@brick.WAG160N> References: <50D7BAB7.9030004@4link.co.uk>

If taken care of my costs, then I would man the booth throughout the time and were whatever Digia clothing (excluding women's wear :-p) that said, I'll need also lodging and lunch expenses paid, so Michael might be a better fit.

If taken care of my costs, then I would man the booth throughout the time and were whatever Digia clothing (excluding women's wear :-p) that said, I'll need also lodging and lunch expenses paid, so Michael might be a better fit.

If by resources you really mean people then how about this: Take over my travel costs (less than 500 Euros) and I'd be happy to wear a Digia head some of the time, too. Could even man the Qt booth for some time. I am sure there are others on this list who would happily take over for you (that is, Digia) if only you pay their travel expenses and send the marketing material to Brussels. ciao Michael -- -Sivan -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I have talked to some of you, and mostly you have backed the Idea, so that I am certain to have already SOME funding, but not enough. So I'm looking for people willing to participate in this as sponsors. The current plan: Probably in June, maybe in April, there might be a Qt5 Event in Germany for about 100 Attendees. I plan to have a training day in front of it, which will allow to offer training for Qt5/C++ to the audience from sponsors. I'm willing to organize this event through Meeting C++, but I need to have at least part of the financial risk covered throught sponsors, as I will not have time otherwise to organize this. please contact me, if you are interested in becoming a sponsor of this event! kind regards, Jens Weller From ash at 4link.co.uk Tue Jan 29 15:57:46 2013 From: ash at 4link.co.uk (Hashiq Nazir) Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2013 14:57:46 +0000 Subject: [Marketing] FOSDEM Qt Stand manning In-Reply-To: <2127279623E71243B624ABEC3C224C053E9F83D5@IT-EXMB01-HKI.it.local> References: <50D7BAB7.9030004@4link.co.uk>
