We asked all our advisory board members for CDs for the event box. We include a few from each one that sent us some.

Is it worth hitting these big linux conferences?  It seems to me that the smaller linuxfests type conferences is the proper target.  They actually talk about desktop instead of cloud or whatever other buzzwords is out there.
 

Also I would much prefer hitting the government and educational conferences.  

I think we should be going to conferences that are not developer conferences. We are often preaching to the choir, i.e. talking about GNOME to people that are already GNOME fans.
