Facilities

• Network:

  • We NEED wifi routers to plug into the Ethernet connections and test.

Here are a few rules from building management (Please note that Microsoft leases one floor in this building):

1. All vendors should have a certificate of insurance on file with the building management before the event. I (Nima email: nimad at microsoft dot com) can handle this as soon as a vendor is identified.

2. There should be no open flames in the building at anytime. This includes sterno and compressed gas used by caterers to heat up food. Electric chafing dishes and electric ovens are ok.

3. There should be no smoking anywhere in the building.

4. We should only hang out in the Microsoft offices during BarCamp. We should not hang out in the stairs or in the lobby.
