I mostly agree - but we have been invited, it costs just time to be
there, and the 1x1m is part
of the "embedded and mobile" area, i.e. is part of a much larger
booth. That is the reason
why I go there without any discussion. I am just asking if someone
will also go there and support.

Yes! That is a good idea - in addition (I don't see a reason why we
can't do both).
