There is only one solution, and it's called Another Place. Haifa University looks like
an excellent alternative
(the Perl Mongers are starting to take over some room there).
Assuming that the situation is Israel won't get any better until the next party, no
cars will be let in for a
"Linux Day". You can't publish in advance that people can get into the technion with a
metallic box without having
it examined, and expect that the security will let them in.
You can't get into the Technion with a car on Friday eves at 22:00, with nothing at
all today. I'm talking about
regular dancing evenings at the Technion, in conjunction with Agudat HaStudentim. So
does anyone expect people to
come in with cars in the middle of the day, for a single event, not officially
connected with the Technion?

Given how well-hidden the registration opportunity is on the site, and the fact that
there is no reason stated why
someone should registrate, 12 people is a lot. If the registration meant that you had
your timeslot promised, I
think that many more would do that.
Giving a cellular phone number to someone who coordinates the schedule during the day
could be the ultimate
solution. Call, then come.
