Re: SXSW stuff

While this discussion is quite important, I think we should get it
going in another thread as none of this quite applies to SXSW.

Sri: how do you plan to promote GNOME at SXSW? Will you join any
relevant events during the conference?

I think it would be great if you brought some swag to distribute.
Leaflets, shirts, stickers... I'm aware we don't have a stand there,
but you could still drop material around during related talks, and
hand it over to anyone interested. As you're going there as a GNOME
Foundation Member it would be nice to have some GNOME material to
spread the word.

Do we still have time to put together some material on that note?

Moreover, could you and Karen maybe write some blog posts about the
experience (she's also attending, right?)? Maybe share any news that
might be relevant to GNOME? You guys should totally tweet some from
our account. Share some picture of you in GNOME shirts, or mention any
cool talks about FOSS. It's pretty awesome that we're joining such a
huge and diverse event, and should let the community know about that
:)
