Anyone have news on the logistics side of the presentation ?
I checked the maemo.org pages about the summit yesterday but am stille having trouble making sense of them :-)
Are the presentations still to be PDF-only ? Will it be possible to display live demos from tablets ? Should everyone make their own badges before coming ? etc. ...
Or is it all going to be one huge, impro jam session ? :-)

I'm going to be bringing 2 N800s, a portable HDD, a camera, a battery pack, a hub, my bluetooth GPS, bluetooth keyboard, lots of spare AA batteries, lots of wires and connectors, etc... I hope they don't think I'm trying to build a bomb or something.

Laptop is in the headline. Headlines are hardly ever accurate, and you clearly haven't read the article. The article speaks about any device able to store data. That includes a DAP, camera, PDA, cellphone too, for example.

Besides that, I don't wish to be treated like an animal/criminal, and the last time I was in the USA it was heading that way. Fingerprints, iris scan, address, searching through all bagage, have to explain what I come doing. On SFO I even had to put my shoes off. Then again, thats California...

There will be video of the main sessions and when concurrent sessions are running I will have to decide which ones get recorded (depends on room logistics and if the talk will be interesting to video). In addition to this there will be audio only for most talks and .pdf's should be distributed too.
Does that cover it for you

Er, no, sorry :-)
Probably my question wasn't clear...
I wasn't asking about recording the presentations, but how *giving* one was going to happen.
Can I/should I bring my own laptop ?
If not, what format should the presentation be to run on the provided computer/projector ? PDF ? Impress ? Powerpoint ?...
Will there be some way to hook up a N8x0 to the projector to demo things from a tablet, or do I need to include the screenshots in the presentation ?
Just the logistics, really. OTOH, if I'm the only one dumb enough not to have found the answers already (quite possible), the others will enlighten me on Friday :-)

Counts for whole EU, when you depart from EU airport, or change flight in EU airport. So, on way back, you'll have to go through this nonsense. Sorry for that...
If you use lenses they will confiscate your lense cleaner if large bottle so get a small one.
I also experiened on German airport that German Customs refused to speak English to me.
