21 !Things we learned
22 *A resources page/board for those interested in future information.
23 *The value of having someone welcoming people to the event.
24 *The value of having the internet available.
25 *Perhaps a notice board/ white board for any rescheduling issues.
26 *Perhaps some configuration work could have been done earlier
27 *Wireless AND wired access is useful to those wishing to hook up laptops. Number one trouble shooting with laptops is wireless issues so wired access is a prerequisite for troubleshooting some issues.
4 JohnBillings 28 *Have a session demonstrating the OpenDisc (on a windows computer), highlighting the programs on it.
