Awesome. Will be attending that for sure, especially if we don't move buildings at work again - at the moment the convention center is walking distance for me.

That's right in the middle of my uni exams. Yes, I'm in Perth, but exam times aren't that different around the country. What a shame. :(

Otherwise, sounds awesome. icon_smile.gif
