    @trib feel free to pimp this to your fellow dark/lefty/libertarian friends!

    The themes of Matt's sessions will encompass many things acidlabs has been espousing of late :-)

    Nick,

    I can't find information on what time of day this thing starts. I registered anyway, maybe the details will come in the confirming email when it comes.

    Cheers, Andrew

    Andrew, it's right there on the signup page. Curmudgeon fail. ;)

    Steve,

    it's three wizard-form clicks away from this page - two clicks into the registration process, and not repeated anywhere else - that is not accessible by any standard :)

    That said, it is in the confirmation email - 08:30-13:30 - and I am looking forward to it. It's in the Events section of the Aussie Bloggers Forum now too.

    Best regards, Andrew
