Maemo Summit 2008/Speakers

Q&A for Maemo Summit speakers. Add your question and an answer should pop up. Feel free improving the answers if you know more.

How big is the room / how many people will it hold?
- The main room is really big and can hold the whole attendance. Main sessions and track sessions in the left side are held there. The other 2 rooms are medium size and can hold around 50 people each.
Are there mics (what kind? Portable, stationary?, portable for audience questions)
- To be confirmed, but no mic planned for medium rooms and perhaps not for the big room either (will ask).
Is there a podium
- Mmm... I think the big room had one, but not the medium.
If we need a moderator can we get one?
- You run your session yourself. If you need a moderator pickm a friend.
Is there a projector?
- Each room is equipped with projector, yes.
Can we project n810/n800's?
- According to the plan, yes.
Can we use powerpoint/equivs?
- PDFs are lovely for interoperability. If you want to be sure bring your laptop and have a USB stick at hand just in case.
Is there wifi? Will it work? Will we need to tell everyone in the audience to stop using the network whlie we try to setup our presentation?
- WiFi is there and supposed to work with enough bandwidth, as long as everybody has anything better to do than downloading those movies.
Will there be any time to set anything up?
- 5 minutes unless you agreed anything else with the previous speaker. You need time to setup your thing and people need time to move to/from other rooms.
