So, OSDC 2007 (Open Source Developers Conference), held in Melbourne in previous years, will visit glorious sunny Brisbane this year (end November, early December).

My thanks to Anthony Towns, Andrae Muys and James Iseppi for helping me with the legwork and homework to put together our submission, and to the OSDC committee for giving us this opportunity - it'll be good.
More news (including the exact dates and venue) soon, Andrae is already preparing the Call for Papers.

If you are interested in helping and haven't written to me before, now is a good time.
Likewise, if you would like to sponsor this event, getting in early could get you an honourable mention even as early as the call for papers... that would get you nearly 10 months worth of exposure and good karma!
We actually received quite a few expressions of interest for sponsoring already; we'll be attaching sponsorships to specific components/events of the conference, so this means that you can align your contribution with something (like a lunch, morning tea, a specific track, or the conference dinner) that best fits your company. First come first serve....
