The installfests of the LUG at NCSU at the beginnings of semesters are
usually pretty packed just for this reason.  Based on anecdotal
evidence, it's best to wait until a couple of weeks into the semester so
that people have some idea of what they need for classes and the like as
well.  Of course, coordinating so that the LUG at NCSU and trilug
installfests aren't at the same time is probably a good thing too :-)
