Please read<br class="">it completely. Apologies if you received this multiple times.<br class="">The previous version got rejected as spam for some people.<br class=""><br class=""><br class="">Location<br class="">--------<br class="">Stands will be located in three buildings on the ULB campus: AW, H<br class="">and K. You can find the location of your stand on the FOSDEM site:<br class=""><a href="https://fosdem.org/2016/stands/" class="">https://fosdem.org/2016/stands/</a><br class=""><br class="">Shipping<br class="">--------<br class="">Do not under any circumstances ship anything directly to ULB or to the<br class="">mail address of FOSDEM. We have no storage space in either location and<br class="">your shipment is more than likely to be lost if you send it there.<br class=""><br class="">If there are things you need to ship ahead, and there is really no<br class="">possibility to arrange with someone local to receive your shipment,<br class="">contact us, and we will see what we can do. We will not accept any<br class="">shipments that we have not agreed on beforehand.<br class=""><br class="">Timing<br class="">-------<br class="">Build-up starts from 9:00 on Saturday. Visitors will start arriving<br class="">around 10:00, and you can expect it to be properly busy by noon.<br class="">The Saturday program ends at 19:00; you're expected to be out of<br class="">the building at that time.<br class=""><br class="">For the night between Saturday and Sunday, there are overnight storage<br class="">rooms in the H and K buildings. You can also leave stuff at your stand<br class="">overnight; the buildings will be closed overnight, but we cannot guard<br class="">the hallways on Sunday morning. We also cannot provide any insurance or<br class="">take responsibility in case of damage or theft. We do have security<br class="">staff on campus at all times.<br class=""><br class="">Sunday starts around 9:00-10:00 and the teardown starts at 17:00. All<br class="">stand holders are expected to help clean up the area around their stand,<br class="">and the tables and table cloths should be returned to the collection<br class="">point by the stand holders. Your stand area should be cleared and<br class="">cleaned up and the tables returned to the collection point by 17:30.<br class=""><br class="">Various<br class="">-------<br class="">The tables provided are 180x80cm wide. We also provide table cloths,<br class="">but you are more than welcome to provide any on your own, especially<br class="">if you have something like a banner for your project. You may not tape<br class="">posters to the walls or windows near the stands.<br class=""><br class="">We will provide you with a power socket. If you require more than<br class="">one, please bring extension cables. Note that Belgium uses type E<br class="">sockets: http://www.worldstandards.eu/electricity/plugs-and-sockets/<br class="">If you need any adapters, make sure to bring them along.<br class=""><br class="">High-speed Internet uplink will be provided by means of WiFi everywhere.<br class="">If you have a device that requires a wired ethernet connection, bring a<br class="">bridge device with you.<br class=""><br class=""><br class="">If you have any further questions, please contact us at<br class=""><stands@fosdem.org>.<br class=""><br class="">Thank you for your participation and see you in Brussels soon!<br class=""><br class=""><br class="">Kind regards,<br class="">FOSDEM Stands Team<br class=""></div></div></blockquote></div><br class=""></body></html>
