This is an excellent idea. I am kicking myself for not thinking of approaching 
you earlier.

So yes, please. And, apart from joining the booth, I suggest we write to the 
organisers. Although the schedule for talks and workshops seems closed, it 
would be good if we had WikiToLearn talk lined up just in case somebody fails. 
Like that you could tell them about WikiToLearn's Swiss project. Don't you 
think?

How would you like to do this? Do you have anybody in Belgium who could 
attend?

Cheers

Paul
