[Cialug] MythTV installfest?

[Nathan C. Smith]

I wonder if a public library like WDM would meet those criteria.  Anybody
have any other ideas?

Maybe we could rent a hotel conference room -type place  for an afternoon
and show geek movies with a projector while we have an installfest.  Kind of
like a MythTV LAN party.

Great idea. Anyone have a proposal for a location? Would be nice if we 
could do it somewhere with cable tv available, high speed internet, and 
plenty of space for people to spread out and work.
