'''Exhibit Move-in Hours:''' <br />
<br />
Monday, June 12, 2:00 pm – 6:00 pm<br />
<br />
Tuesday, June 13, 7:00 am – 10:00 am<br />
<br />
'''Exhibit Show Hours: ''' <br />
Tuesday, June 13, 10:00 am – 7:30 pm<br />
<br />

<br />
'''Exhibit Move-out Hours:''' <br />
<br />

<br />
== Birds of a Feather Gathering ==<br />
An informal gathering of the open source geospatial community will occur at:<br />
<br />
* Tuesday, June 13<br />
* now at 8:30 pm - 9:30 pm<br />
* Location: Plaza Room<br />
<br />
Tyler is now running the BOF.<br />
<br />
The "agenda" will be something like this:<br />
<br />
* Welcome (BOF Host: Tyler)<br />
<br />
* "What is OSGeo?" (5-10 mins) (Speaker 1)<br />
<br />
* "OSGeo and the Open Geodata Project" (5 mins) (Speaker: Jo Walsh)<br />
<br />
* "An OSGeo Project" (5 mins) (Speaker 3)<br />
<br />
* "An OSGeo Project" (5 mins) (Speaker 4)<br />
<br />
* open discussion (remainder of time, until wee small hours)<br />
<br />
The actual agenda will firm up closer to the time, when we get a better feel for who is going to be presenting what on the main stage, e.g. we don't want to repeat a "What is OSGeo" talk -- and who is actually going to be at the conference.<br />
<br />
Preference for "Project" speakers will be those who don't get main-stage airtime. Also, note that I'm explicitly including the "Edu" and "OpenData" groups as projects.<br />
<br />
== Press Event: Developer Roundtable ==<br />
<br />
Section got too big -- moved to separate page: [[OSGeo at Where PressEvent]]<br />
<br />
== Pre-Conference Messaging ==<br />
OSGeo has the opportunity to email conference attendees who have opted in to receive communications regarding the event. The conference organizers at O'Reilly will provide a list 7-10 days prior to the conference. Chris Holmes has volunteered to craft a message promoting OSGeo activities at Where 2.0 and invite others to join us.<br />
<br />
== Flyers and Posters ==<br />
Tyler has taken on gathering content from the current OSGeo projects and producing flyers for each project. Posters for use in the booth are also a possibility...<br />
<br />
== Advertisement ==<br />
Look for a one page ad promoting OSGeo in the conference program. It is a minimalist design, as our resources are limited here. The ad will also be repurposed as a flyer and distributed at the booth. Banner ads will also be running on selected O'Reilly web sites.<br />
<br />
== Library ==<br />
The following materials will be posted after the conference for re-use at other OSGeo events:<br />
<br />
* Artwork for banners<br />
* Flyers<br />
* Posters (if available)<br />
* Advertisement<br />
* Banner ads<br />
* Presentations<br />
