I signed up as the Pyramid presenter at the EuroPython poster session,
knowing that I might not be able to make it to Florence. And, in fact, I
cannot make the conference.

I'm looking for two kinds of help:

- - We need to get the poster itself ready this week. Are there existing
materials we should be using? Anybody have experience laying out such
a document?

- - I need a replacement for the poster session itself, which occurs
Thursday, 2012-07-05, from 17:15 - 18:30. Can anyone volunteer to
be present to answer questions?

Thanks!


Tres.

Hi,
do you still need help? 
I will attend the EuroPython and could help out with the poster session (by the way there two poster sessions). Or if someone else took over I could offer some support.
Though I'm not a designer I can layout and/or create a high resolution print file.

I think the Europython is the best oppurtunity in Europe to present Pyramid (and due to the overwhelming django publicity  necessary) so I'll do what I can. Just let me know.

I think we need two things:

1. Someone to create the poster.

2. Someone (or a few someones) to "man the booth" at the poster sessions
and answer questions from folks who wander up.

If you are willing to do one or the other or both, that'd be great. I
think we're just praying someone will have enough gumption to take
charge of this and produce something nice-looking as well as hang around
the poster session answering questions. Even if it was just a poster
that said "PYRAMID" on it without any other info ;-)

I think the poster is little bit more difficult. The guys at Europython take care of the printing and need it these days, right? 
So 'll start with that. Do you have any details on size, format and so on?

And maybe a pyramid flyer? If not I'll browse the website and see what I find. However I should have something by tomorrow and post it here for feedback. 
OK?

Arndt.

So, here is a poster (even two). It's more or less the website in poster format.
Any comments or spotted mistakes?

These look nice to me!

Tres, can you give Arndt any more information about how to submit the
poster to the EuroPython people?

Looks like I'm a bit late... next time ask me, I can help or provide material to do it... like the new logo, colours and specs.

I think I should provide some templates for that kind of event to help people prepare their material with the right brand.
