I really like this idea Don. It’s supports the reality that
Eclipse has grown into a lot of specific technical verticals. Doug G From: eclipse.org-eclipsecon-program-committee-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx

Behalf Of Donald Smith Yes - MSW is looking at making the badges bigger to accommodate the
space and are checking on the sticker options. Yet another reason to keep
the set small, we don't want people to have to distinguish between
"Hawaiian Orchid Purple" and "Devastating Purple" :) - Don From: Ken Bauer [mailto:kenbauer@xxxxxxx] Donald, Great idea. Make sure to use a colour coding scheme for the
different stickers, it will help to quickly identify people. Then look at your badge real-estate to see how big they can
be. - Ken On 6-Dec-06, at 8:40 AM, Donald Smith wrote:
The
Eclipse ecosystem is diverse, and it can sometimes be a challenge (especially
for exhibitors) to identify people who are interested in a particular market.
For example, it would be great if Embedded folks were able to easily spot each
other, and great value for Exhibitors to know if someone was keen on the
Embedded space. We
are looking at including a set of stickers in the bags this year that allow
people to identify what is interesting to them. Just like last year we plan to
have "Ask me about" stickers, but this would be additional. I am
imagining something like a 1" brightly colored sticker that says
"Embedded", etc. Now
for the hard part - to come up with a small enough set of stickers that covers
enough interesting groups of people. It seems to me that 6 or 7 would be the
absolute max, otherwise it will get confusing. I am hesitant to have stickers
to designate projects, or else we may end up with 60+ sticker suggestions,
which won't work. Does
anyone have suggestions on categories? Here is my straw man: RCP Embedded Java/J2EE OSGi Testing Reporting To
help with this - try to imagine logical "sub conference" segments
that show up at EclipseCon. Cheers, -
