Hi Steven :)
I am back from spain (it was amazing time)

I have several virtual machines and people can ssh to my laptop.
so we still need to use laptop of users for it but they are safe that only
my machine is affected.
we need also wifi (sometimes I used my phone to be acces-point/hot spot but
it only works for less than 5 users)

we always share screen session so everybody can see what we are doing (it
is better than projector usually)

We can also build real storage and play with removing cables from the
switch during WRITE/READ operation :)
Could be more fun!
we can have less machines than people and share screen on projector
we need at least 4 machines to make real show: 3 chunk servers, 1x
metalogger, (my laptop can act as a master server)
pure ubuntu 12.04 will work just fine :)

+1

4 hours is enough.
if you want code we need another day for introduction to the code style :p
I am kidding ... 4 hours is perfect.

I will be available all time from 17th october 13:00 to  22nd October 23:00
you can suggest it in doodle.
after doodle is done and everybody voted (let say 15th of october) I will
set up another meeting with other users and friends in ZRH :)

doodle is great idea !
what about beer after workshops ?
I will be more than happy to pay for first 20 beers for participants of the
workshop :)
