Maemo Summit 2009/Location

We need to choose the site, and once the site is chosen, co-ordinate for space requirements, infrastructure requirements, catering, and negotiate overall budget.

Checklist

  • When?
  • What is the available space & configurations?
  • What are our space requirements? (estimate min. and max. attendees and factor in popular vs unpopular sessions)
  • What infrastructure will we need from the facility?
    • Wifi
    • Electricity
    • Chairs
    • Projectors
    • A/V
    • Streaming (?)
    • Hang-out/demo space
  • What infrastructure & "dressing" must we provide?
  • On-site catering: what do we need? Coffee, beer, lunch?
  • Do we deal with caterers directly, or go through the venue?
  • What is the total budget for the facility?
