[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:15:21] <lenards>  joint - UA medical, ASU journalism, nursing and others, along w/ NAU
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:15:28] <johnc4510-laptop> cool
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:15:34] <lenards>  but the area that I was looking at belongs mainly to ASU
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:15:41] <lenards>  UA has an MBA program there too
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:15:42] <lenards>  anyway
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:15:45] <lenards>  http://www.asu.edu/tour/downtown/index.html http://www.asu.edu/tour/downtown/ucent.html
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:15:50] Quit       kennymc has left this server ("http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client").
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:15:55] <johnc4510-laptop> looking
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:15:58] <lenards>  the first link is just the main piece for the ASU downtown campus
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:16:24] <lenards>  the second is the "University Center" - which looks like, given the information, might be a solid location for the conference
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:16:50] <lenards>  I do not have any contact information on who is responsible for scheduling the location
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:17:07] <johnc4510-laptop> lenards: is the panoramic view in the first link at the downtown campus?
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:17:20] <lenards>  but the wiki access, "hi-tech" classrooms, and such seem like a good option
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:17:36] <lenards>  I was downtown yesterday for a dbacks game and saw a bit of the campus
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:17:49] <lenards>  johnc4510-laptop: I believe the panoramic view is the downtown campus
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:17:58] <lenards>  johnc4510-laptop: but I'm not certain
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:18:12] <johnc4510-laptop> it looks perfect :)
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:18:21] <johnc4510-laptop> ok, lenards thx soooo much for this info
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:18:28]     * lenards bows 
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:18:31] <lenards>  you're welcome
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:18:44] <lenards>  oh
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:18:45] <johnc4510-laptop> i will pass it on to xHans and see if it looks ok to him
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:19:00] <lenards>  if you're looking for logistics - like where these building are in relation to streets, etc
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:19:00] <johnc4510-laptop> we can try to find out about scheduling too
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:19:05] <lenards>  there is a map on the first page
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:19:13] <lenards>  okay

[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:26:14] <xHans>    on the Central side I think they have it all dug up for the train
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:26:37] <lenards>  ya - the street car tracks, right?

[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:27:30] <Wolf_45_> Is there "anywhere" that isn't routinely "Under Destruction"?
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:28:00] <xHans>    Wolf_45_: lots of Phoenix as long as you're not talking about McDowell and recently the train path
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:28:18] <xHans>    McDowell is always under destruction
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:28:28] <xHans>    it's like the big dig, except without digging
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:28:41] <lenards>  xHans: I don't know who to talk with ...
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:29:02] <johnc4510-laptop> is there a contact link on the site?
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:29:10] <lenards>  looking
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:29:13] <xHans>    hmmm, ucent is two doors down from purl, maybe we should meet there :)
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:30:18] <johnc4510-laptop> xHans: what is ucent
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:30:25] <johnc4510-laptop> university center?
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:30:28] <lenards>  johnc4510-laptop: University Center
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:30:31] <johnc4510-laptop> ah
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:30:39] <johnc4510-laptop> hard to follow
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:30:41] <lenards>  xHans, johnc4510-laptop - real quick
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:30:51] <xHans>    johnc4510-laptop: I wasn't certain, ucent is what's on the map :)
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:30:55] <lenards>  xHans: I'm not positive that the University Center is open
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:31:14] <posingaspopular>  boredandblogging: ping?
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:31:22] <xHans>    the NPO institute has a ucent address
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:31:29] <xHans>    I think there's also a dorm built into it
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:31:31] <lenards>  xHans: so I'll try to confirm the building is open ... and then get some idea about who to talk w/
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:31:41] <lenards>  xHans: okay
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:31:55] <boredandblogging> posingaspopular: whats up
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:32:04] <lenards>  this worried me - http://copp.asu.edu/do/from-the-dean/civic-space
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:32:04] <xHans>    lenards: that would be great
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:32:25] <lenards>  xHans: I guess I'll just start cold calling people and try to be friendly
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:32:37] <lenards>  xHans: we have $0 for this, right?
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:32:42] <xHans>    lenards: thus far
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:32:50]     * xHans can chip in $5 :)
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:32:56] <lenards>  xHans: we're looking for it as a donation of their space...
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:33:04]     * lenards chips in $5 more 
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:33:17] <johnc4510-laptop> :)
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:33:18] <xHans>    now we can have chips *and* salsa!
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:33:19] <xHans>    :)
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:33:26] <johnc4510-laptop> for 5
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:33:28] <johnc4510-laptop> lol
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:33:32] <johnc4510-laptop> maybe
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:33:43]     * kennymc0_laptop chips in chips and salsa
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:34:04] <xHans>    yeah, we need a place for 4 classrooms and ideally a somewhat larger room and then also an area where we can have booths
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:34:13] <johnc4510-laptop> lenards: we need one room for keynote that seats 200-300
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:34:24] Quit       kennymc0_laptop has left this server ("http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client").
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:34:25] <johnc4510-laptop> then a couple or three smaller rooms
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:34:27] <johnc4510-laptop> for talks
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:34:28] <xHans>    we could do all of this at the MU on the main campus, but downtown would be better
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:34:35] <lenards>  johnc4510-laptop: okay
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:34:48] <johnc4510-laptop> and we need wireless
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:35:11] <xHans>    the sticking point might be the booth stuff as ideally we'd charge a bit for that for commercial entities
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:35:21] <johnc4510-laptop> lenards: it would also help if we can set up tables(booths) outside the main room
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:35:35] <johnc4510-laptop> yeah
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:35:35] <xHans>    it wouldn't be much the first year, so we could just make booths free if that's an issue
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:35:43] <johnc4510-laptop> agreed
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:35:52] <lenards>  if I remember correctly - the keynote hinged on us getting a room
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:36:04] <lenards>  summarizing
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:36:13] <johnc4510-laptop> any sponsor money needs to go back into the event if possible this first yr
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:36:16] <johnc4510-laptop> ?
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:36:22] <johnc4510-laptop> lenards: yes
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:36:29] <lenards>  bare-min - we need 3 to 4 classrooms with projection and wifi
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:36:44]     * johnc4510-laptop nods
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:36:46] <lenards>  with a space for 200-300... projection, audio and wifi
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:37:04] <lenards>  room for booths/tables outside said large-room a plus
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:37:32] <johnc4510-laptop> lenards: classrooms for talks can be smaller i think, right xHans
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:37:34] <lenards>  all for zero dollars - and we'll include ASU in all of the advertising as a top-notch sponsor
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:37:43] <johnc4510-laptop> lenards: yes
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:37:56] <lenards>  classrooms for talks likely to be space for 15 to 40
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:37:57] <lenards>  ?
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:38:12] <johnc4510-laptop> i'd say 50, but ask xHans
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:38:24] <xHans>    classrooms that hold 30 would be good
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:38:28] <johnc4510-laptop> k
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:38:30] <xHans>    if they hold more that's fine
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:38:30] <lenards>  okay
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:38:45] <xHans>    chips were easy, but the salsa was hiding
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:38:50] <johnc4510-laptop> lol
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:38:58] <lenards>  so I'll try to get into touch w/ someone responsible for facility management and scheduling of the University Center (UCENT)
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:39:11] <xHans>    yeah, facility gets listed as sponsor if it wants
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:39:11] <lenards>  they'll love hearing from a "wildcat" - I'm sure =)
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:39:29] <johnc4510-laptop> lenards: if they say anything about cleanup and a charge, tell them we will leave it as good or better than we find it
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:39:32] <johnc4510-laptop> ?
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:39:43]     * lenards nods 
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:39:54] <xHans>    lenards: ah, yeah, I was thinking this is the co-uni place
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:39:58] <xHans>    it's ASU-only?
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:39:58] <lenards>  johnc4510-laptop: I'll state that we'll assembly a cleanup team
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:40:18] <lenards>  xHans: I believe this is an ASU only piece of the joint campus
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:40:19] <johnc4510-laptop> kk
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:40:28] <lenards>  xHans: I can look into the UA side too
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:40:35]     * johnc4510-laptop will wear his u of a tshirt
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:40:42] <lenards>  xHans: but ASU seemed to have the better facilities
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:40:48] <johnc4510-laptop> ah
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:41:03] <xHans>    lenards: please do as a UofA tie in might get more Tucsonians to come north
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:41:38] <johnc4510-laptop> xHans: agreed, but i will be pushing the lugs and such to come
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:41:40] <lenards>  I know that one of the UA buildings is a theater space - if they're friendly, we might be able to find someone for a keynote in another building... PURL or Post Office building
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:41:53] <johnc4510-laptop> i will schedule car pooling if necessary
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:42:05] <xHans>    johnc4510-laptop: excellent
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:42:44] <lenards>  this is the auditorium I was talking about
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:42:45] <lenards>  http://www.asu.edu/tour/downtown/uaaud.html
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:43:04] <lenards>  I mentioned it as a "theater"... I know Tenacious D played there some years back
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:43:10] <johnc4510-laptop> we should also somehow try to get the word out to other places
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:43:25] <johnc4510-laptop> prescott will be easy, we have a great member there
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:43:31] <xHans>    lenards: BTW, are you on the conf mailing list?
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:43:40] <johnc4510-laptop> he needs to be
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:43:49] <lenards>  xHans: I don't believe I am - but I can be
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:43:51] <johnc4510-laptop> i'll send him the info
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:43:59]     * lenards nodes 
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:44:04]     * lenards nods 
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:44:07] <johnc4510-laptop> lol
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:44:24] <xHans>    ah, tgen, that's a place I'm a little familiar with
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:45:00] <lenards>  one options might be to use this auditorium for keynote and the classrooms in the Mercado
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:45:41] <xHans>    lenards: ok, that time of year would be fine for that as well
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:45:43] <lenards>  http://www.asu.edu/tour/downtown/merc.html
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:46:07] <johnc4510-laptop> lenards: just sent you the mail list info
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:46:14] <lenards>  well - I'll jump the hurdle of getting someone that knows
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:46:21] <lenards>  e.g. availability and such
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:46:25] <lenards>  johnc4510-laptop: thanks
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:46:43] <xHans>    I will check one or two people I might know at tgen
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:46:57] <lenards>  xHans: great
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:47:17] <johnc4510-laptop> cool
[Sun Jul 20 2008] [21:47:48] <johnc4510-laptop> xHans: you have any annoucements to make?
