   4 1. Past and Future Events
   5  a. Dipro Antwerp on 13/09 - report
   6 It was a successful event with a lot of new enthusiastic volunteers from Antwerp area. The preparation of the team for the next Dipro fair on 29/11 was already started.
   7  b. Software Freedom Day and HCC Vlaanderen OpenDoor Day 19/09 - Wezembeek Oppem
   8 there were not too many visitors, but we were able to help some people,The  contacts we made with the HCC were positive, and we had more than enough volunteers.
   9  c. Accenta 2009 Fair in Ghent 19/09 and 20/09 - report
  10 A successful event in a fairly big fair, excellent to let Ubuntu better known by the public, very good contact with Digipolis. Report and pictures are in the wiki  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/Accenta_2009
  11 The booth was a very positive experience and we had a lot of visitors (more than in some other booths in the fair!). A lot of people (more than in Dipro fairs) never heard about Ubuntu.
  12 We should do more booths at different places like that: it is just a problem of contact and to find opportunities. Suggestions are welcome.
  13  d. Dipro Hasselt 27/09
  14 The team (5) is complete and and the preparation is going well. WiFi is likely not available: we could use 3G if needed.
  15  e. Next events in October
  16 Dipro fairs in Kortrijk 04/10, Charleroi 11/10, Ostend 18/10 and Oostmalle 25/10
  17 The difficulty could be to constitute a team for Dipro fair in Oostmalle.
  18  f. Next events in November
  19 Dipro fair in Ghent (08/11), Release Party in Ghent (21/11), Dipro fair Antwerp (29/11). We have to start the preparation of the release party in October: we need volunteers help for the organization/preparation of the party.
  20 2. Promotion material: 
  21  a. New posters are on sale, prices and order procedure have been published in the mailing list.
  22  b. Other promotion material  
  23 We need a presentation in screenshots "how to install ubuntu in dual boot (on a generic pc)" as support of our explanation to visitors in the fairs. People having questions does not have time (and patience) to look at an exhaustive video. A presentation "on click" is easier, you progress according to the person you are talking with. rossemiel will try working on it.
