If you can make it to the Linux Stammtisch on the 17th, that's a great place
to get assistance.

It's on the East side, though. If someone, however, wants to start a West
side location for the Linux Stammtisch, that would be awesome. We'd need a
place that has enough light to work as well as room for boxen[1]. We also
need to be able to get food. Beer is considered a plus by many :), but isn't
a requirement ( for most ). Bandwidth is a must, but rumor has it that we
might be able to talk Kimi into providing ricochet access through Unitywave
once a month :).

I also have dists for PPC and Sparc architectures. Those, however, are

computer-related places tend to be problematic.
