Hi Bill. | Seriously, I have no objections to the suggested location. It would certainly make a change to have something like this away from the traditional haunts of the computer algebra community ie the North Atlantic fringe.
Bear in mind that a flight to Austalia from those parts of the world is usually about 24 hours worth of travel and hideously expensive. | Mike, can you think of any possible local funding sources | and/or host organizations? I'm not an expert on organising conferences nor an academic, however, there are three Universities in Brisbane with mathematics departments of varying sizes: http://www.maths.uq.edu.au/ http://www.maths.qut.edu.au/ http://www.cit.gu.edu.au/maths/ All three of those universities also have the usual IT, engineering and science faculties any of which could be regarded as potential sponsors. An interesting series of questions is: Does any reader of this mailing list other than myself come from: Brisbane? South-east Queensland? Australia?
