I think this is a great idea, I was down at Noisebridge for an SF-LUG
meeting a few weeks back, great space.

Do you have some dates you were shooting for? I find installfests a
few weeks after release tend to work well since the community tends to
shake out the bugs by then so then you either have fixes or documented
work-arounds. Plus it gives us time to plan and promote.
