The issue with a label printer and a QR code is that it adds to the badge pickup time. 

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. We would need to develop one. If there's someone that wants to take the task on, please let me know.

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,
