Good thing I went back up to the Exhibit room this morning. Some of the stuff I'd put up on the walls had fallen down. One of the two walls is covered with fuzzy material to which tape does not stick well. Not only had the little signs fallen off, but more seriously, the super-sized badge from ConFrancisco did not stay up. So a bit of a rework was required. We put up large strips of wide tape attached to the bits of metal trim to which things would stick, then used that as something to which we could attach the smaller signs. The large badge we just sat on the table -- it's clearly too heavy to attach with tape to either wall. (In retrospect, strips of sticky-back Velcro might have worked to adhere to that fuzzy wall.) I will continue to check back as my schedule permits to see how it holds together.

I owe CascadiaCon an apology -- they did tell me about the revised layout, and I didn't quite absorb it because the information came while I was in the peak of Interaction planning, and thus was focused on Glasgow, not Seattle. So it's not their fault that my exhibit is not optimized for the layout they provided me.
