Some ideas:

Large coloured posters to stick on the wall behind and over the front of the
table.

Professional-looking large timetables to stick on the door of the
developers' room (including the talk abstracts if possible) and
(laminated?) on top of the table.

Small printed timetables for people to take away to remind them what
time the talks are and where to go.  Could include the abstracts if
there's space: the FOSDEM booklet just has times, titles and speakers'
names on pages 15 ("Sat day") and 17 (Sunday).

Large coloured Fedora logo to put on the door of the developers' room.

A note for the door saying people are welcome to enter and leave even while
there's a talk in progress.  (IIRC the door is at the front of the room next to
the speaker.)

One way to attract a crowd to the table is to have unusual hardware or
an unusual demonstration.
