We (Beagleboard) would like to ship some equipment to the event location ahead of time. Is this possible, and if yes, what address shall we use? -- Måns Rullgård mans@mansr.com

It is not possible for the FOSDEM organization to accept shipments on behalf of exhibitors (or anyone else for that matter) prior to the event. FOSDEM is already a logistics nightmare without that complication. Please also do not ship stuff to the venue on Friday under the assumption that FOSDEM staff will be happy to sign for it. We've had some groups take that approach in previous years and it's a pain to accept the shipments, store them securely and ultimately ensure that they reach the right people on Saturday. We're an open source conference, not a parcel service. Having said that: perhaps someone subscribed to this list with spare storage space (perhaps at their place of work) could get in touch with you out of band to arrange something. - Philip -- Philip Paeps Please don't Cc me, I am philip@fosdem.org subscribed to the list.

Another alternative would be to contact your hotel and see if they would be willing to accept a shipment for you. -- Russell Bryant

if it's not a to big package, I could take care of it. If I get a beagle board in return for it ;-) if you're interested, please contact me on bert at devnox dot. be -- Bert Desmet 0477/305361

It is quite sizable, hence the request in the first place, but thanks for the offer. -- Måns Rullgård mans@mansr.com
hello Mans, I live very close to ULB where Fosdem takes place and I could receive nearly any shipment for you. don't hesitate to get in touch privately for the addres and more info. Best regards, Nicolas 2011/1/10, Måns Rullgård <mans@mansr.com>:
