Hi Kay, What kind of project giveaways are you thinking of? Let me know - I'll be more than happy to accommodate this if I can. Please be sure to contact brand management if approval is needed!!!
As Ross mentioned, I'm the primary booth staffer, but there are always a handful of volunteers that help at the booth (staffing during breaks/lunch and help with the setup/teardown). Shane will be my sidekick at the booth this year. If you or others from your project will be attending OSCON and would like to be present at the booth at a specific time to talk to the attendees, just let me know. We could always send out a broadcast via social media about "stop by the ASF's booth at XXX to speak with the reps from Project XXX". That goes for the other projects as well!! It's always great to have someone from the community at the booth to answer technical questions!! Please let me know if you have any further questions. Have a great day - speak soon, ~Melissa ________________________________ From: Ross Gardler <rgard...@opendirective.com> To: dev@community.apache.org; ksch...@apache.org Sent: Thursday, June 19, 2014 11:07 PM Subject: Re: Apache@ OSCON question We have foundation giveaways but generally not specific projects (the table isn't big enough;-) Usually we just have Melissa staff it and answer general questions about the ASF. Wherever possible she connects people asking about specific projects to attendees at the conference. In theory we could be more organized giving specific projects a time slot for example. But we would someone to help Melissa manage this. If there is something you would like to do let us know.
