Please list your availability and german skills if you are interested in helping with the booth. Or if you already know which shifts you want to take, feel free to add yourself in the second table. Ideally a shift is two people, but given the space reserved at the booth size I think we can get away with one as well. Helping at the booth means answering questions regarding Sugar and Sugar Labs, demoing Sugar and flashing Soas on request. People helping at the booth will get a Linuxtag ticket.
