It will be in the same building, but the room number has changed from
1115 to 2117, which is just up one floor and smaller; it should seat up
to about 40 people. There's no changes to the equipment available or
anything.

A note about parking: There's lots of parking lots on campus, but only
some of them are usable by people without permits (e.g. visitors). Of
the lots near CSIC, XX1 is open to all after 4pm. There are lots E, EE,
and T across the street, but parking there will get you a ticket.

I've made a map of the nearby parking lots and the shuttle stops using
the Google Maps API.

I also added more info to the wiki on parking
http://barcamp.org/DemoCampDC1

There's still two presentation slots open to whoever wants them.

More about the room reservation:
Apparently there was a screw up in the scheduling last time* and we were
bumped out by Google (they reserved 1115 from 4-8pm although they'll
only be there 5:15-6:30). I took care of the rescheduling myself and
have written confirmation from the scheduling people.

* Although the room was marked as "in use" in the database, 1) Google
has (and gives out) lots of money and 2) the scheduling department
wasn't notified formally and therefore wasn't even obligated to tell us
we'd been bumped out.

Anywho, everything is in order now.

Cheers,
-Nikolas

Shall I print and bring a room-change sign to post outside of 1115, or
has that already been covered?

Thanks for gathering and posting all the directions and location
information, Nikolas!

I'm going to post a few letter-sized (8.5x11") signs around the building
to help guide people. If you'd like to print something a bit bigger for
the room it's not in and the room it is in, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,
-Nikolas
