[H-GEN] Open Source Developers Conference - Do we want to host it?

[Andrae Muys]

The opportunity has presented itself for Brisbane to host this years  
Open Source Developers Conference in December.  The previous OSDCs  
have been held in Melbourne, but after several years and with an LCA  
to organise, the OSDC organising committee have asked for another  
city to host it this year.  Sydney have said that they are willing to  
host it if no-one else can be found, however not surprisingly the  
committee would like to find a city that wants to host it.

The conference is much smaller than LCA, generally 150-200 people.  I  
am willing to help organise it, and several humbuggers who were at  
LCA have also expressed interest and excitement at the prospect of  
hosting OSDC. I will let those individuals speak for themselves; I  
felt it important to start this discussion now we are back from LCA  
as the decision needs to be made within the next couple of weeks.
