Thanks. Your skills will be valued!

Are you close enough to Berkeley to assist with location
evaluation/selection/finding/planning, etc?

One nice thing about being at Soda hall or the CS portables near
Bancroft ave is there are greenery, power, INet, restrooms, chairs,
drinking fountains, etc.  I think there is a barbecue grill stored in
Soda hall. (we'll probably need a campus sponsor for inet & facilities
permission - anyone have any likely contacts/suggestions?)

Even though I'm a UCB EECS grad, I'd kinda like to avoid the Soda, Cory,
Engineering area.  Nice to have a non-engineering venue.  Also might
like to have something convenient to non cs-engineering people, perhaps
making it easier & more likely for general users to move up to
BSD-GNU/Linux.
