[Chicago] [Fwd: Any ChiPy plans for PyCon 2008?]

[DiPierro, Massimo]

One more thought,
 
Fermilab may be interested in hosting the event and they have one large auditorium (~1000), one large conference room (~200) and other smaller conference rooms. They organize this type of events all the time and have personnel in charge. I have contacts in the computing division and I can ask them if they would be interested people think it is appropriate.

My Dean tells me have rooms at DePaul in the student center that may be suitable. 
 
The largest room there can accommodate 550 people and can be split in two rooms easily. There is also another room in the same building that can accommodate about 200 and that can also be split in two smaller rooms.
 
If the number of participants is closer to 500 than 600 I think this may work. What do you think?

Hrm, I'll have to ask around.  This place is a bit 'alt' for those
kind of connections, I'd imagine.
