Hi Boekenwuurm!

Good timing, let's figure this out by midnight.

The announcement says
"One table (180x80cm) with a set of chairs and a power socket"
https://fosdem.org/2025/news/2024-09-25-stands-cfp/

For badges, we may end up with a very small collection of items on
display (3 perhaps?) so not much space is needed.

I guess that could be enough for both, unless you have an elaborate
collection of artifacts.

If I had to promote a camp event in this setting, I guess I'd put on a
screen with a slideshow or short clips.

I'm interested in a joint application for the following reasons:

- Joint applications are favoured by FOSDEM orga.
- We want to show the badges, somebody would have to send those to me,
  but on your side somebody might agree just to bring their badges.
- Guaranteed to be at the same spot, straightforward to give each other
  a bit of time off while keeping an eye on the belongings.

Here is my draft application:

Please let me know what you think.
By default I will submit my application in the evening.
