 * Julian will look into what material was used last time ([[Cebit-2009|2009]]) and what we need this year.
  * More leaflets can be found here [[http://fsfe.org/about/printable/printable.html]] and here [[http://download.fsfe.org/advocacy/]]
 * We should have a look at [[BoothFAQ]] and [[Event representation]]
 * We want to print things through [[http://flyeralarm.com]]. They only need a couple of days to print the stuff it seems, see [[http://www.flyeralarm.com/de/view_faq.php?faqsearchword=Lieferzeit|Lieferzeiten]]
We will have a standard bundle, containing of one folder, one graphical Fellowship flyer, one Android flyer and a plussy sticker. The flyers and sticker will be put inside of the folder (A5 sized) and make a handy little bundle.

We will have additional material for selected subjects that are likely to be touched during discussions with guests, namely on the Fellowship, Open Standards, the Freedom Task Force and Software Patents.

 * Have a look at the [[BoothFAQ]] - it answers many important questions about FSFE
 * We had a booth in [[Cebit-2009|2009]]
 * Leaflets and their sources can be found here: [[http://fsfe.org/about/printable/printable.html]], [[http://download.fsfe.org/advocacy/]]

 * Are any FSFE fellows speaking at CeBIT? When/Where? (rosso)
   * --(Leaflet on the pdreaders campaign)-- (jan) DONE. However, the TeX sources mentioned above are for the green fellowship design, not the blueish FSFE design. There are more layout differences than just the colour, so, if someone can point me to the propper TeX sources, I would alter the leaflets: [[attachment:pdfreaders-leaflet.de.tex]] and [[attachment:pdfreaders-leaflet.en.tex]].
 * What kind of infrastructure is provided by CeBIT? (rosso)
 * How many tickets do we get? (rosso)
 * Name tags (rosso/julian)
 * Items from last time's post processing that we will do something about:
   * ''A lot (A LOT) of people were reluctant to grab our info material because it was too cumbersome and asked for simple business cards to check "all the rest" _online_. (I personally welcome that idea to save some trees.) We were able to hand out the ones from Shane and Graeme, but it would be nice to have some general business card formatted info about the FSFE (like the old green fellowship mini cards).'' - We have made the standard bundle A5 sized, which is more handy. We also have the A6 sized Android flyers that contain FSFE's URL in case somebody finds A5 to cumbersome.
   * ''The Plussy stickers were a great help as a "door opener". We offered them "for free" to bypassing visitors and instantly had a starting point for a chat. After a very positive conversation, we had to leave them with the sticker and a nice impression of our organisation, but unfortunately, they will not be able to remember where to find more info about us, because the stickers have no indicator what or where the "plussy" belongs to. Once we noticed that, we started to handwrite "www.fsfe.org" on the back of the stickers. Anyway, this should be ON the stickers somewhere IMO.'' We want a rubber stamp to put fsfe.org on the sticker's back (julian)

 * Are any FSFE fellows speaking at CeBIT? When/Where?
 * Items from last time's post processing that we should think about:
   * ''We've been asked several times for an easy-to-understand table that compares the most common Free Software licenses.''
   * ''request for overview: "Arguments for managers: why switch to Free Software"''
   * ''A donation box from the beginning would have been useful. We made one out of a plastic cup, but something more professional would be good.''
   * ''A lot (A LOT) of people were reluctant to grab our info material because it was too cumbersome and asked for simple business cards to check "all the rest" _online_. (I personally welcome that idea to save some trees.) We were able to hand out the ones from Shane and Graeme, but it would be nice to have some general business card formatted info about the FSFE (like the old green fellowship mini cards).''
   * ''just the letters "fsfe" didn't mean anything to the visitors. (Almost) nobody knew what they stand for. I think the "Free Software Foundation Europe" should be visible somewhere on the front of the folders and everything else. Maybe this is worth considering before we order any new leaflets.''
   * ''The Plussy stickers were a great help as a "door opener". We offered them "for free" to bypassing visitors and instantly had a starting point for a chat. After a very positive conversation, we had to leave them with the sticker and a nice impression of our organisation, but unfortunately, they will not be able to remember where to find more info about us, because the stickers have no indicator what or where the "plussy" belongs to. Once we noticed that, we started to handwrite "www.fsfe.org" on the back of the stickers. Anyway, this should be ON the stickers somewhere IMO.''
   * ''My feeling was that about 97% of all visitors have not heard of the FSFE ever before. But once we explained what we are doing and for what reasons, almost everybody was happy that we exist and asked instantly: "How can I support your work?" -- I think we could recycle the "new-years-campaign"-leaflet for general Fellow-recruitment. We just have to remove the "new-year" stuff''
 * We decided only to use leaflets in English and German
 * We have a small storage that should be sufficient to store the leaflets within our booth
 * julian and rosso will go there on Monday already and have a look at the "infrastructure" provided
 * We won't have a donation box. If people want to donate we should talk them into becoming fellows/doing a donation online.
