There was no "announcement", just questions from me.

I planned something else already (BBQ at my parents), because there was
almost no reaction on my questions...

Yes, that's why we need to agree on all this beforehand.

If we want to do installs/demos, we'll need internet access (or at least
an up-to-date local archive mirror).

I don't want a ubuntero-only or geek-only party, but of course some
interest to at least learn about what is Ubuntu should be assumed.

A "real" party with DJs etc. will probably require a lot of preparation,
so maybe just getting together at some place is a safe option to start
with.

About a date: I suggest somewhere after the exams, so that students can
attend too...  ;-)
