Room Booking
- Confirmed for Sat 10th March, booking ID 22413
Flier
- We need a few of these distributed around Vic
First draft [http://user.interface.org.nz/~gringer/interface/interface_installfest_2007_1_DAHdraft1.svg]
- Would be good to re-do this to appear more interesting
here is something that would be nice to include: [http://user.interface.org.nz/~gringer/interface/pengu_wall_transparent.png]
- Note those drafts are in JPEG format, I believe that they can be printed out on A4 without losing much quality. If anyone wants I'll vector them in the weekend. - Felix
Penguin Installfest Draft [http://img154.imageshack.us/img154/9919/installfestjf8.jpg] - Color
Tux Installfest Draft [http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/5515/installfest2ht3.jpg] - Black n' White
Soviet Installfest Draft [http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/351/installfestsovietlc6.jpg] - Black n' White
- they look great, thanks!
- having these in vector format would be nice, or at least PNG (JPEG is a lossy format), because there will be a few of these printed at least A3 size
adding the Interface logo somewhere would be good as well (PNG: [http://user.interface.org.nz/~andrew/files/interlogo_white.png], SVG: [http://user.interface.org.nz/~gringer/interface/interface_logo.svg], GIF without text: [http://user.interface.org.nz/~gringer/interface/interface.gif])
- Updated Posters, all come in PNG format with adjusted color balance.

Forms
- It can help if a disclaimer form is signed by people who attend
a version of this (arbitrarily v. 4) can be found here: [http://user.interface.org.nz/~gringer/interface/disclaimer_v4.odt]
- Membership forms are also useful

Network Access
- Someone needs to contact one of the programmers to make sure we have network access on the day
- network port configured in the same way as the one in the staff room
This was done this time by submitting a bug report to bugs@mcs.vuw.ac.nz (job request may be better)
- Mark Davies has set up port 003 in this way (1730, 2007-03-09)
- Testing this would probably be a good idea
- set up ethernet port on laptop as:
- iface eth0 inet static
- address 130.195.11.240
- netmask 255.255.255.0
- network 130.195.11.0
- broadcast 130.195.11.255
- # ifup eth0
- plug network cable into laptop (test cable as working in Memphis / staff room)
- $ ping 130.195.11.127
- plug other end of network cable into a port in the room, wait ~10s for response (while ping command was still continuing)
DavidHall tested this ~1745 Friday, so it should be good for the day
Extra stuff
- External hard drive for storing disk images
- Spare monitors, keyboards, mice, modems
- Switches, extension cords and plug boards
- Network cables
On The Day
- at ~9am, take stuff up to CO341, in paticular SWANS access point + power boards.
- check Interface port -- one way to do this is to plug the access point into it, wait a few seconds, then see if you can connect to SWANS over wireless
Attendance
- It helps if someone is at Vic at 0900 to set things up, and sort out last minute things (like making sure the caretakers are aware that we have booked a room)
DavidHall will be coming in from Akatarawa, so may not be there at 0900 for the setup
AndrewWalbran will be there most of the time, but probably not quite from the start.
- Steve Nicholson I'll get there at 9am, can only stay couple of hours.
