dear all,

This now has programme with timings and the notes on logistics moved to 
another page: http://wiki.okfn.org/okscotland/logistics

Here follows the current contents of that page:

Logistical Considerations
-------------------------

     * Email lightning talk presenters to ascertain whether they still 
intend to present. If so, title of the talk will be requried for the 
programme

Stuart has done this, 9 people so far responded.

     * Email delegates to enquire as to what OS (Mac/Windows/Linux), any 
other technical or special requirements,
     * Do we have adequate laptop coverage - should we sign out 2 or 3 
from EDINA?

There will be 3 macs there attached to the slide wall and another one 
for the main projector.

     * Where do we source microphones? Is there a cost associated?

Argh i forgot to ask about the microphones - Mark mentioned in email 
that some new ones were being tested there, but there was no induction loop.

     * Also, where to source flip charts, pens, sticky labels etc?

Jo will pick up this stuff on Wednesday

     * Provide adequate signage for those unfamiliar with the 
Informatics Forum/InSpace

Can print signs in the morning Thurs

     * Posters/slide wall - from EDINA, AQMeN, RCAHMS?

I reckon we should solicit more, there will be lots of time during the 
drinks to stare at the walls.

     * UStream/AV feed - do we have time/facilities/inclination to set 
this up?

Nicola has promising work on this, and we'll also have a recording.

     * Registration desk, delegate packs? Space for fliers, sign-up 
sheet (physical or electronic via wiki) - for those individuals that 
would like to collaborate or discuss further issues raised during the event

We can put a table near the entrance and have sticky labels and "Open 
Knowledge" and "Open Data" stickers and tick ppls names off a list if we 
so desire.

     * Regarding drinks (6.15-7pm). Do we want to acquire further 
freebies such as pens, bookmarks?
     * local IT technician?

There will be a technician there around 3pm but perhaps not later or 
constantly.

     * Do we want the 'clinic' to be at start, middle or as the last 
event before the wrap up?

Jo emailing Charlotte and Andres to ask

     * has someone been identified to do the welcome?

Michael Fourman seemed happy enough to do it, though i wonder if we 
should have asked Peter or whether they could both do short remarks
