Aside from the sponsorship concern (I'm not as concerned about a poster
during a talk "diluting" the platinum sponsor's logo *on the videos and the
banner behind the podiums* during the course of the ARM talk at the very
least.
The problem we're going to run into is that we're not allowed to tack
anything to the walls at all. If you wish to bring something that the poster
can sit on, we could probably have it up in the hacklab? But, it can't be on
the wall, so you'd need an easel or something.
