There are many interesting places where having a booth would be great.

My personal gut feeling is that ubuntu-be.org is not yet ready for
tackling the corporate space, so I haven't personally taken any
initiative in this direction yet. I haven't seen other ubuntu-be.org
volunteers organise initiatives towards the business world yet either.

We probably need more discussion about what we need to credibly
present ourselves to the business world. My personal gut feeling is
that ubuntu-be.org is not yet ready for tackling the corporate space
in a credible way. But then again ubuntu-be.org shouldn't reflect my
my personal vision. It should just be clear and realistic. Same thing
for our 2007 roadmap in general. Probably both need some discussion.

At FOSDEM, we planned an electronic meeting on March 15 at 21.00.
Please add proposed agenda items at
