Delete branch "add/event-box"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Migrates the Fedora Event Box (Pelican case) tracking from disparate Wiki pages and spreadsheets into the central Antora-based documentation. This establishes a single source of truth for event organizers regarding shipping logistics and current inventory levels for 2026.

Typefield here? Intended? Unintended? You decide.Lets try to keep all references of EU consistent please.
Pick one.
American (US)orContinental United States (US).You and I won't be confused but we cannot assume the same of others, no?

I wonder if we should add stub docs for continents like APAC, etc. where we do not have event boxes yet but this might encourage people to step up and help with the procurement, maintenance and utilities of those, rather than implicitly ruling that possibility out just because we specifically documented here about US and EMEA.
Good start. Just a few nitpicks here and there.
Love having this as part of the docs 😍 The event boxes always confused me 😆 Just some thoughts:
Overall I think it's a good first iteration and we can add more information to the pages as time goes on!
fa7871c365to835f223d08835f223d082d335aacb52d335aacb5e8d0db8c68Thanks @t0xic0der and @ekidney for the review. I addressed all of the feedback in
92115e9:@t0xic0der's feedback:
@ekidney's feedback:
Inventory updates: Both boxes were updated from the shared Pelican tracker spreadsheet. NA was last verified by @carlwgeorge after LFNW 2026 and EMEA by @lruzicka after DevConf.cz 2026. The EMEA sticker inventory expanded significantly to reflect actual post-DevConf stock levels.
On stub pages for APAC/LATAM: I want to hold off on this for now. We do not have the shipping and storage logistics worked out yet to make this viable, so promoting it prematurely could set the wrong expectations. The "Help Wanted" callout on the overview page is sufficient until we do that homework.
@t0xic0der @ekidney @jnsamyak @theprogram @lbazan -- I would appreciate your review on this PR as Mindshare Committee members. Please take a look and share any feedback.

No more significant changes from my side apart from a couple of disregardable nitpicks.
Looks good to me.
