Benjamin,

What we'd need is a room with folding tables, chairs, AC and IP
connectivity. We'd set up an installation assembly line, troubleshooting
and experimentation table and a demonstration area. Two medium sized
adjacent rooms might be good to acoustically isolate the activities. I'd
estimate 15 to 20 volunteer installers and demonstrators from the Asterisk
Users Group and maybe 50 to 75 guests. After we have a confirmed location,
we'll start the publicity and refer everyone to a site where they can
register to attend so we have a better number.

The Atlanta Linux Enthusiasts (several of which are interested in
attending) meet at Emory and though they think we can use a room over
there, most of us in Asterisk Users Group believe Georgia Tech is a better
location. (I'm partial since my daughter starts there this Fall.) There is
a good percentage of Asterisk people who are also Amateur Radio operators
and we'd like to pull in the GT Radio group too since we'll be
demonstrating various wireless interfaces to Asterisk.  Since there is
more communications research in progress at GT there might be more
interested people there. Asterisk makes a great lab tool for any Voip
work. Since it's Open Source you can code in emerging standards and unique
test cases quickly and inexpensively.

Also having the Asterisk Install Fest at GT would be a great run up to the
Asterisk Developers Conference that was recently announced to be held at
GT in late May (http://www.asterisk.org/node/48316).

I'd be glad to answer more questions and you can call me at 678-464-3031
anytime you'd like to talk.

&gt; The Installfest is indeed a great idea, if you've discovered enough of
&gt; a need for it in the area. However, I'm not sure how much help we could
&gt; be in the organization or operation of such an event. We could promote
&gt; your event via the channels we use to promote ours, but that's also
&gt; limited since some channels are only for officially chartered GT orgs.
&gt;
&gt; Please note that I'm not declining. I'm only asking what the partnership
&gt; would entail.
&gt;
&gt; Thanks for writing and I apologize for the delay in response,
