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

> Kind regards,
> FOSDEM Stands Team
