Cracking idea. Exactly who and how many people we can sponsor all depends on the finances. The good news is that Thomas has been doing a great job drumming up lots of sponsorship (and probably lots of the board and other folks in the background). So long as the finances allow it I see nothing to stop us doing this. > Also, just a thought: it might be nice to have a small room where SoC > students who come will be able to meet, and so people interested in > their projects can come to discuss with them. What do you think? We've got the whole place (bar a few music students practicing) so I'm sure we can find a space. We have one room which we are planning for ad-hoc plan as you go activities, plus there are other rooms we could use - if you want to make it really small then a practice room fits 3 at most ;-) Another idea - perhaps we could persuade one or more hackers known for giving good presentations (Federico for example) to do a tech presentations mini-tutorial/workshop on Monday (not just for SoC students it would be good for all)?
