If all that is required is a demonstration of RoboLab during our meeting,
then the room at NI could work out ok. What are the requirements of the
presentation? Is there any participation required on our part, besides
paying attention for an hour or so?
How about access to the room? Will it be available to us from Friday evening
to Saturday evening (or even to Sunday afternoon)? Could we come and go as
we pleased?
I'm guessing that we'll start setting things up Friday evening after people
get off work. We'll then resume setting up Saturday morning and then have
all afternoon (and possibly some of Sunday) to play with our "group creation".
Of course we could try and have this meeting all in one day, but I think
that we'd spend most of it just setting up and then packing up afterwards.
What does everyone else think? Am I overestimating the time required?
Your thoughts, please!
