Two suggestions: I would encourage a voluntary name tag system. I saw some people doing that, and I really craved broader usage. It's really nice to be able to quickly scan some ones name and project information and perhaps make a connection you wouldn't otherwise make. I think trying to centralize registration and hand out name tags like at other conferences would be a huge PITA. But I would have been cheerful to hand make a name tag ahead of time. Perhaps I missed the encouragement to do so, but I would suggest encouraging that explicitly under the 'registration' section.
I proposed to take care of it at previous FOSDEM editions, but organisers refused. -- Benjamin Henrion <bhenrion at ffii.org> FFII Brussels - +32-484-566109 - +32-2-3500762 "In July 2005, after several failed attempts to legalise software patents in Europe, the patent establishment changed its strategy. Instead of explicitly seeking to sanction the patentability of software, they are now seeking to create a central European patent court, which would establish and enforce patentability rules in their favor, without any possibility of correction by competing courts or democratically elected legislators."
