Well, seems great. The first thing what it comes to my mind about a FOSS
Stall would be giving a hand to help the visitors which of the GNU/Linux
flavor suits them the most. I hope this could be done. Take out some good
distros and show them.
There are a lot of posters somewhere on the web, you could print them and
stick it all over the stall walls, to make it more eyecatching.
Another suggestion would be having a brief hands-on hack on GIMP, Inkscape
and few other important tools. These are not meant to show the proprietary
replacements but to showcase the GNU/Linux system's power.
Lot of videos are available which attract more users to GNU. They could be
played. I have a few of them. If you need help give me a call.
Meanwhile, having more thought about latest upgrades, ventures, hacks could
be done. You could even develop a Tathva Distro by remastering any of the
flavors you like and give them to your friends.
Regards.
