I agree with Cameron.
I don't have the time to put into organising another conference.
That said, this will be a good personal development opportunity for
colleagues in Australia. I suspect that several members from the
FOSS4G 2009 Sydney team would be willing to act as your mentors.
You will find the experience to be very rewarding, but require a lot
of time and effort.
If you are interested, please use this list to build your initial
team and plans.
@Eli,
We routinely get approaches from the Melbourne Convention Centre.
Bruce

Hi Eli,
One FOSS4G conference is enough for me. I'm not planning to volunteer
to host another.
I'm CCing the Australian/NZ list. Someone on that list might be
interested.
Cheers, Cameron

Dear Eli,
I hope this email finds you well. My name is Chris Achacoso and I
work in the New York office of the Melbourne Convention Bureau (MCB).
I'm hoping connect with you on FOSS4G and when the next potential
open year would be for Melbourne to bid. Is there any interest to
hold FOSS 4G down under for the 2018 event and if so, could our city
be considered?
I understand you must be in knee-deep in planning for the next event
in Germany, but I would love to see how we can work together to bring
the conference to Melbourne.
Thank you in advance for your insight and I hope to hear from you soon.
Regards
Chris
