[I've added those machines to the wiki.]

Which basement and what is the smökki ? And how many APs exactly and what 
model ?

One thing which is still unclear, is the situation about machines to record 
the video stuff. We need around 3 PCs (*) with 200gb HDs - having (a) 
server(s) with _lots_ of harddisc space could also come very handy if we use 
such a big server for video editing. 

(*) The number 3 is based on the assumption, that there might be 3 different 
things to record at the same time.

I'd also like to sit back and say "thanks andreas, for recruting all those 
sponsorships!" :-)
