The last two or three installfests were sparsely attended by people 
coming to do the install.  The volunteers generally outnumbered the 
attendees.

With the Ubuntu CD generally being so popular and easy to install, the 
OLUG Officiates decided to not put any more effort into organizing the 
installfests.

Now, if there is interest, maybe we could have something like barcamp or 
the unconference, where it's  more free form.  We wouldn't need an RSVP, 
but we could do something on a Saturday at the AIM Training lab where it 
could be a skills building and meet-n-greet event.  Maybe sign gpg-keys, 
mingle, and network (socially).

Thoughts anyone?
