Thats a good question for Jack. He's been doing them all so far.

Yes, yes, definitely. A small series of presentations, one every two
hours?, with a posted schedule.
We'll have to see how many presentations we have before designing a
(rotating?) schedule. System setup time is a factor as well.
I'll put some thought into what would make a good SELinux
demonstration.
We can do some fun stuff locally, then show how well a strict policy
works by letting people try stuff as root on Russell Coker's FC play
machine.
Ah, sounds good. I wonder if RH will be doing SELinux presentations in
their booth space as well, might not want to compete.

Wonder if there are any IHVs who will contribute some hardware for
this.
In the past, Pogo Linux provided system(s) for the booth. They have
access to typical Intel/AMD (even dual core) systems, but probably not
an apple. I still have a fairly good relationship with them even though
I no longer work there and I can act as the liason for getting hardware.
We just have to determine what we want to have.
Perhaps Greg can find out who Red Hat is sending that might be able
to
pull some presentation duty.
I'll add my meager few thoughts to that page.
Thanks!
