Although we let Sydney members know about the conference at the last
meeting, we have been keeping a bit quite about it till the online
registration is up and running, which will be within the next few days.

I haven't replaced it with anything... just got rid of it, which has
been fine for me, since I used wrap='virtual', which seems to be the
default behaviour for every browser I'm testing...
