One issue that I can forsee with this is that the engineering
buildings lock over the weekend, so you need to recruit Penn students
to open doors with their PennCards. We have encountered this problem
before when hosting events from the DP Speakers Series.
However, I'm sure that their would be interest for this, and we
certainly have large lecture halls where power strips can be plugged
in, and internet connections poached.
There was at one time an UNPLUG (UPenn Linux Users Group) and we tried
to run an installfest on campus, but we were unable to generate enough
interest (bad timing). The Dining Philosophers would be happy to help
if you want to run it somewhere on the Penn Campus, and as long as we
don't use Wharton buildings, there shouldn't be any charges. Our
president is still in Philly, but most of the board and our members
are home for the summer.
So, Nicolai, feel free to drop the board a line at
<dpexec@seas.upenn.edu>, and we can at the least advertise it to our
members.
