* Local Servers
* Teeworlds; OpenArena - to be running full-time so that people can connect at will. Should be set up for voting to allow people to change maps.
* Maybe run a Teeworlds (or other lower-bandwidth) server external, so people not at the meeting can join
* AF and AB to see how feasible such a server is; which machine, what network, traffic concerns for VPAC (maps, other in-game downloads that can be hosted locally)
* Ethernet, wireless or both?
* AF: Bridge between the two networks needed, or choose one only
