Hi,
We can have a label printer in the speakers room, and one by the sponsors line.
Thank You Matti

moin moin,
The issue with a label printer and a QR code is that it adds to the badge
pickup time.
The label printer would not need to be kept with or done at the same time as badge pickup.
Even if we don't do a printout of some sort we could provide QR codes for speakers to keep on their phones.
OK, don't tell anyone, but I did some graphics work :).
I grabbed the SCaLE menu logo off the site. A few adjustments to that will give us better visual results, but the QR code works. Attached is an example.
qrencode -o SCaLE14x_der.hans_qr_cli.png 'http://www.socallinuxexpo.org /scale/14x/speakers/der-hans'
convert -gravity center -composite SCaLE14x_der.hans_qr_cli.png scale_penguin_menu.png SCaLE14x_der.hans_qr_cli_logo.png
Looks quite scriptable to me. I'll create a shell script if you want.
The far more elegant solution is a smart phone app with notifications
enabled. The ones out there are expensive and not really worth it for us.
Are we going to use Guidebook again?
We would need to develop one. If there's someone that wants to take the
task on, please let me know.
What features do we want? Not offering to pop out a phone app :), but knowing desired features could generate ideas on how to get them.
ciao,

Perhaps we can get a label printer and allow custom prints w a QR code to add to the badge?
That way we can keep up with updates if they occur and people can print and promote their talk or booth by printing both text and QR code.
Thinking:
"My Cool Open Source talk" [ QR code ] " Sat 11AM Room 101A"
-- "Job BOF" [ QR code ] "Fri 8PM Room 301B"
"Robot Demo at" [ QR code ] "Booth 29, 1PM"

That came up in the SeaGL channel.
As was pointed out, schedule changes happen and updates would be difficult. SCaLE has been great about not having changes, so that's less of an issue :).
However, for me, as a speaker, the main reason I want info on my badge is for others who want to go to my talks, so I would actually prefer a QR code with a link to either my talk page or my speaker page, which would then have easy to use links for calendar entry and/or guidebook entry.
I actually meant to do that on my own last year :), but didn't get to it :(.
ciao,
