[Marketing] FOSDEM Qt Stand manning

[Hashiq Nazir]

Hi Sivan,


I will hopefully get my sign off for this event today and will be able 
to show Qt running on BlackBerry devices, handsets and tablets. I will 
hopefully be on hand to help setup the stand but im not sure about 
teardown as I have another event in Amsterdam that I need to be in for 
the next day so it depends on flights etc. but I will do my best to 
assist as much as I can.

Is it possible to get an idea of the size of the booth and get a contact 
for logistics onsite ?


Thanks

Ash.
