A few key highlights to share: - dates are now confirmed: 20-23 November 2018 - venue is confirmed: Old Arts Building at the University of Melbourne - we took a survey of the community on topics of interest, and received 50 responses - plenty of progress on forging key partnerships, and planning of scheduling, workshops, and registration We're aiming to keep communicating via this email list, but we're also very close to launching our spiffy new website - check back in the next week or so at http://foss4g-oceania.org for event updates & information.
