Hi all,
Well, we didn't get around to doing the application (I ran out of time), so we won't have a booth, but all is not lost!
I suggest we just go guerrilla-style with whatever we want to show and colonize tables of people we know there* (I think Yusuke and Wuulong will be there, probably others), or just mill about meeting people and representing the hackerspace in person.
I plan to go Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning. I look forward to riding a YouBike there (if I can figure out the correct address... is this it?
https://goo.gl/maps/aBE7Cou8X3S2 ) I will bring our LASS mobile pollution detector, some hackerspace t-shirts, maybe some bags if I get around to making some today, and some screens to show slides or other info about the hackerspace.
See you there!

PS: Make sure to bring business cards, they're really useful, and you'll be sorry if you don't have any.
You can just use the template I use, using this web page and filling in your name, email, and phone number and printing on A4 paper:
The result looks really cheap, but I use them all the time, and am gradually getting less embarrassed about them :D
If you want a nicer-looking and more official-looking hackerspace business card, ask Simon
kai....@gmail.com , he sent me a file but it was too fancy and complicated to use for me.
