Each room will have a "local admin" to help workshop givers to prepare.
Preparation will be done the day before (Monday for Tuesday and Tuesday for Wednesday).
Technical considerations
PCs
Workshop distribution in rooms depends on the success of each workshop (see Workshops allocation). Laptops can be used to adjust each room capacity. Moreover we will ask Dell if they could give us some PCs (they did it for LinuxDays.ch)
OS
PCs are all using WinXP ! Few have a Suse/WinXP dual boot. No worry, we are quiet free to do what we want with all these PCs. Each PC will be cleaned before starting each workshop (ghost image), so it's ready for a install exercice for example. We can install an Ubuntu or what we want...
Network
Conference area is largely covered with wireless, and easily accessible. And to avoid access point overload, it's planned to add some more.
For workshops, some rooms have Wireless, but not all. LAN or Wireless will be installed were it is needed. It's planned to make available a network drive (to store and share data for example).
Use of LiveCD
Use of LiveCd during workshops.
Some workshop givers has planned to work with their own LiveCD. No problem. So people coming with their laptop can use it.
FOSS4G2006 LiveCD.
Local committee is motivated to build our own FOSS4G2006 LiveCD (based on Knoppix). It could be used during workshops if needed. The purpose is also to offer it to attendees (workshops or all ?). TODO : choose a base (Knoppix) and list the tools (+version) to install.
Some links.
- LiveCD GIS oriented : List
- List of GIS LiveCDs
- Mandriva based : FOSS4G Toolkit CD --> Hum, it's not a LiveCD !!
- Knoppix based : GIS Knoppix
