[committee] internet access for astronomy conference

[Andrew Williams]

UCC is still one of the possibilities for supporting and providing 
internet access during the Astronomy Society of Australia conference, 
July 6-10 this year. Can anyone tell me in the next few hours:

-how big UCC's non-PARNET link is - as I understand it, we can't use 
PARNET without giving each attendee a unique username/password. Can it 
support a couple of hundred users?

-Is UCC willing to commit to providing people (and possibly equipment) 
to set up a few wireless access points and a switch on a desk for 
non-wireless access? The lecture theatre especially will need to handle 
20-50 simultaneous wireless users...
