I was just about to send an email about that -- We actually only have 
a little more than a week. I'm filling out a bunch of forms and 
getting everyone registered at this very moment, as that deadline is 
tomorrow.

Eelke -- could you put up a list of what accessibility equipment you 
are able to bring? I'll then look it over so that I can try and 
figure out what I have that you don't and then we can talk about what 
we will actually bring (we probably want to have enough with us to 
mix things up so that there's something new a couple times a day).

I know Eitan is having a tough time posting to the wiki -- Eitan -- 
just email me with info you want to add.

So one quick thing via email -- Can ANYONE quickly design a flier 
with the SIG info and such or even just get it started with a nice 
looking template? If I don't hear from anyone about this by 
Wednesday, I'll need to do it myself (ie, it won't be great but it 
will have to do) and get it to the printer ASAP.

In the meantime I'm doing a conference call tomorrow with the "what 
we MUST know about our booth at E for All" at the 11th hour...this 
will finally tell us about the set up of the booth plus how I should 
best create the booth signage. As soon as I can (I teach tomorrow so 
it won't be right away) I'll put it on the wiki and ping the list.

As for coverage for the booth, I will post an initial shift schedule. 
There is no need for everyone to be there at every minute (booth 
isn't big enough anyway and it would trash our being able to 
network). We have Eitan plus 3 others from MIT, 6 of my students from 
UIUC, Eelke, Reid, and I who will be there. So that's 13 of us 
available, although some will only be there for 1 or 2 days.

I'll put this on the wiki but I also wanted to note these things to the list.
