On Oct 22, 12:57 pm, Mark Mandel [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Added all my presentations. Very interesting approach :D Well consider it a thought experiment at this stage :) If it seems to be working well, we'll promote the site properly across all the previous attendees, and the community at large. Folks should feel free to add anything they think would be interesting to see. Potential speakers could use the list as well to pitch for talks that have a specific audience appeal. Building an agenda is always a bit more complicated than showing people what they want to see -- you have to find people to present topic ideas to start with ;) But hopefully this can help us pick from the long list of submissions we get every year, and set themes that click with what folks find interesting today. I may break the session list into four forums, loosely matching the four tracks/streams that we run each year. That would give people a lot more votes to play around with, and provide a better focus for people interested in particular streams. First up we need to see how people react to it, and what content gets posted. So far the response has been great, we're seeing some good ideas already. The official call for papers is due out beginning of November.

The taxi drivers and shop keepers are polite, Hahaha. My gf just went over to Sydney on a business trip. First cab...runs out of gas on the highway. Guy wants the fare PLUS 150 bucks to tow the car. What he didn't know was that she's a New Yorker and was ready to rip his head off without blinking. ;) On the other hand...yes, cab drivers out here are polite - once they show up, 45 minutes after you've called the taxi company. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups cfaussie group.

[cfaussie] Re: WebDU 2007
I'll ditto Mark's comments. Great to meet those who I did. And of course kudos to Geoff and the Daemon crew for a really great conference. I blogged about that, as well as the fun time I had sharing the floor with Mark leading the birds of a feature session on CFCs, and finally my general love of all things Australian. :-) I hope I can come back again in the future. It's always a pleasure. (It was also good business, as I was asked to take on some troubleshooting consulting projects, which is indeed what I like to do.) Nice to finally be able to put some faces to names. I'm off tomorrow--to warmer climes. Goodness it got cold and windy last night. It didn't help that I got stuck out walking through Hyde park when the monsoon blew in! :-) /Charlie http://www.carehart.org/ -Original Message- From: cfaussie@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark Mandel Sent: Sunday, March 25, 2007 10:32 AM To: cfaussie@googlegroups.com Subject: [cfaussie] Re: WebDU 2007 Awesome conference all around! :oD I had an absolute blast, and all of you that I met in the flesh for the first time (too many to mention, but you all know who you are), it was great to finally meet you in person. @Ryan: glad you liked the presentation :oD Mark JiWire Hotspot Helper eliminates the barriers to a safe and seamless Wi-Fi hotspot experience.

My attendance all depends on how long it takes for me to complete my Hilton lap of luxury.

If you can't make the drinks and you're unable to due to religious/personal dislike to drunken shaky faced webdu geeks doing things that can only be described as part-funny and part-disturbing, never fear as you can check out some of the pieces of the Microsoft goodness at the WACOM booth (check these guys out this year if you get a chance). WACOM and Windows Vista gives you Tablet PC capabilities? (which is damn cool). P.S Yes, Adobe folks are more than welcome to attend and you get to have access to spirits, to help promote the spirit of interoperability.

although it (MS/ no MS) really doesn't have much to do with Adobe, it's really Geoff Bowers' call and it could come down to just simple logistics (i.e too hard) Adobe would have to have atleast some say, they are the head sponsor, there cash would have some say.

It's kind of Ironic, last time when it was announced MS were a Big sponsor I thought it was going to be a MS fest.

[cfaussie] Re: WebDU Pricing
Agreed. Last year, I got my copy of Visual Studio 2005. I took it home, put it on the shelf for a couple of months and ignored it. Then I was asked to review a C# Book by mistake from O`Reilly. So i read it anyway, and went I've said this before, but this C# stuff looks familiar (ActionScript 3.0 etc). So I tweaked, played and begin spinning up Windows Form applications in next to no time, and really found it kind of fun. Even made it talk to Coldfusion WSDL (had visions of MossyBlog's backend running in a WinForm Application as it was easier to drag/drop crap). Anywho.. the point is. It opened the left eye to Microsoft, and thus I am part of the brand. There was reach there, I've heard comments about how MS helped folks who did attend WebDU. Politics aside that's life :) Adobe will do their thing, we'll do ours, Google will GMAIL you the results hehehe. Learn and remember its about solutions, not brand. As a good friend of mine says, be Agnostic in your development. The dinners rock and so do the games, Daemon folks put on a good show and all the best this year (i've only ever missed one since it started, and I always look forward to them each year - even when Justin McLean announces he had the first ticket!!!). (I actually asked Geoff this year if I could pay for the first ticket earlier in the year when I was down there in March I think)... hehehe...

Accommodation specials for the venue are listed here: http://www.webdu.com.au/go/venue Of course there's no reason to have to stay at the Hilton, but this is the only *special* conference rate we have available. Having never been before I'm not sure how the price has changed recently, but this is almost as expensive as Max and that was twice as long. Anyway, I'm still interested, just asking the question, need to work out total price before putting in the request. Conference, Accomidation Airfares. The price this year has gone down for early bird tickets (available until Jan 19) and up (~$100AU) for full price ticket (which includes the Banquet). Group booking discounts apply for 3 or more delegates. Pricing details are outlined: http://www.webdu.com.au/go/registration In terms of local pricing, the conference is pitched well below standard conference rates (as previously indicated by others on this list). For example, a 2-Day IT conference from say IQPC (http://www.iqpc.com.au) typically runs to 3,000AU for a single track. With respect to training options, a 2-day beginners flash course from an Adobe training centre is $990AU.

Hey Guys, Whilst we're all having such a great time chewing the WebDU fat I thought i'd just throw my 2 cents worth into the mix... First up I think a lot of you guys are missing the point (except maybe Geoff, Robin and Darren). WebDU IS NOT AN ADOBE CONFERENCE! Yes Adobe is the major sponsor, and yes most of the sessions feature Adobe products. But for those of you who have missed it being mentioned at least 3 or 4 times earlier WebDU is an independent conference run by an independent company called Daemon who are located in Sydney. If you want to attend an Adobe conference then be sure to visit http://events.adobe.co.uk/events/cgi/main.cgi?country=pa and check out one of the many events/conferences coming soon to a city near you - even Melbourne gets a gernsey. If you have an issue with Adobe not supporting your product or town - TAKE IT UP WITH THEM and stop wasting everyone's time whinging about WebDU! Dale Fraser wrote: The cost comes in to question where you wish to send multiple people. If I want to send 3 people to WebDu then I have no hope of getting that approved with flights / accommodation. It adds up and the business will question why they all need to go. If it was in Melbourne I would have no issue. Dale, if you think that 1 x trip to MAX is CHEAPER than 4 x trips to WebDU then I want some of the drugs you've been smoking. I'd hazard a guess that an 'average' trip to MAX for a single punter including airfare, accom and conference ticket (not including gambling and bordello visits) would be around 5K. By my 'rough' guestimates 4 x WebDU tickets from Melbourne would set you back a tad over 1K a head. Sounds more like you just don't know how to formulate a strong enough argument to get your team up to Sydney (despite it being cheaper than your trip to MAX). Dale Fraser wrote: Having the entire IT section out interstate doesn't help the problem. Mate, your IT guys are at a conference! So whether the conference is in town, out of town, out of state or out of the country - they're still away from the office so what's the bloody difference?! The fact of the matter is that they're not in the building to fix any problems. Bjorn Schultheiss wrote: moving the circus around Australia it will only create better awareness of the event. I'm not too sure which planet you've been living on Bjorn, but anyone who's paid even the slightest bit of attention to anything Macromedia/Adobe related over the last 4 years knows about MXDU/WebDU. It has a reputation second to none as being one of the top Adobe/Macromedia flavoured conferences in this region (let alone the world). I really don't see how moving it round the country would increase its awareness/exposure. That would simply mean different people who wouldn't ordinarily travel to Sydney might be able to see it. Conversely people living in Sydney might not travel to what ever city it was in which kind of defeats the whole end purpose of 'raising its awareness' (i.e. getting more people to attend). --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups cfaussie group.

just to pick up on Matt Voermans' point of WebDU IS NOT AN ADOBE CONFERENCE! and forgive me for sounding like an old Hippie but *_WE_* are the conference! WE as attendees create the vibe WE as interested parties drive the subject matter (call for papers) WE as participants prepare the presentations and try them out at our forgiving local user group meetings beforehand WE do the networking and schmoosing WE decide just how much (or little) we get out of the thing. WE as a community decide if it lives or dies (by supporting it or not) Adobe, Microsoft, Rocketboots, and the other sponsers are comming along for the ride. That's very different to the Microsoft roadshows (or Adobe's for that matter) should I break into the tired old paraphrasing of Ask not what your CF community can do for you... etc? nah, I guess not. but you get the point. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups cfaussie group.

Right on Barry! I can feel the love growing in this thread as we speak. Those of you who there for the original love-in back in 2003 will know that MXDU/WebDU has ALWAYS been about the people and the community (as opposed to the sponsors). The fact that it isn't a corporate (read Adobe/Micorsoft) conference is one of the main reasons why it's such a great gig. There's no hidden marketing/sales agendas. Just great people from around Australia, and the world, sharing their love (and knowledge) of web software. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups cfaussie group.

I have been watching this thread most of the day and just thought I would tell a few truths. 1. It would be very hard for Geoff and I to run the conference in another state without additional help within that state. I admit it would be wonderful to spread the conference around 'like a circus' but this would also involve more expense as we would not have the facilities and resources at hand if we were away from our office in Sydney. 2. The ticket pricing will be finalized shortly and there will be no huge increases, if any. 3. The New Hilton is a fabulous venue, I am responsible for the venue change and you will not be disappointed. 4. WebDu is going to be fantastic next year - bigger and better and we hope you can make it.

To think, I thought I put forward a compelling argument with my FAAARK You guys complain and I nominate Geoff for Father of the year. You can't buy that kind of commentry its pure genius drival-rant-whining. To be honest, WebDU is a perfect guise to get absolutely shit faced, have cameras take photo of people doing shakky faces and more importantly its a network building session. That's primary, secondary is to open your minds a bit, peel back the brain and absorb all the digital-candy going on thats happening in the web development space (centred mainly around Adobe goodness - except if Nectarine bring out PooFarm 2.0 this year.. hey, i'm hoping theres a directors cut as the first year MXDU was a gooden).

Julie, Thanks for the response, I understand the cost and logistic issues, I'm still hopeful that one day in the future WebDU will be big enough and profitable enough to take on the road. There are lots of good CF people in VIC and I'm sure other states who would help if the time ever comes.

[cfaussie] Re: webDU - I hope I can make it next year!
Thanks for asking, Brett. :-) I would absolutely love to come. It's been 5 years since I was last there (honeymoon) and 10 since I lived there (in sunny Canberra). But I'm now an independent (which means no one to pay my way), so I have to weigh it carefully. I'm in Atlanta GA, so the airfare would be about US$1500, then add on hotel, meals, etc. I did see that Geoff has kindly offers the notion of day-long and half-day seminars, in which he'll share the profit to offset speaker travel costs. That's very encouraging, and I was looking forward to seeing more about that. I've also just started doing a day-long seminar on FusionDebug and FusionReactor in conjunction with the guys from Intergral, which we may be able to bring to the event. We may do that separately from the event, and might even bring it around the country if there was interest--in a nod to the calls here for traveling circuses :-) We currently have just scheduled the first two for Europe early in November: http://www.fusion-reactor.com/fastTrack.html But I've always wanted to come to the event. And I have plenty of other topics besides FD to propose, either for a session or for half/day-long seminars. And perhaps I might also be able to promote and arrange some on-site consulting gigs to help justify the cost. As I've only recently gone back on my own, I don't have a clear resource to offer that describes the consulting I can offer. I don't mean traditional building apps but instead helping build up developers and/or the environment, helping solve problems and improving productivity. I know that sounds kind of vague, so hard to sell at this point. :-) /charlie http://www.carehart.org/blog/ -Original Message- From: cfaussie@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brett Payne-Rhodes Sent: Thursday, October 12, 2006 1:22 PM To: cfaussie@googlegroups.com Subject: [cfaussie] webDU - I hope I can make it next year!

First up I think a lot of you guys are missing the point (except maybe Geoff, Robin and Darren). WebDU IS NOT AN ADOBE CONFERENCE! Yes Adobe is the major sponsor, and yes most of the sessions feature Adobe products. But for those of you who have missed it being mentioned at least 3 or 4 times earlier WebDU is an independent conference run by an independent company called Daemon who are located in Sydney. If you want to attend an Adobe conference then be sure to visit http://events.adobe.co.uk/events/cgi/main.cgi?country=pa and check out one of the many events/conferences coming soon to a city near you - even Melbourne gets a gernsey. If you have an issue with Adobe not supporting your product or town - TAKE IT UP WITH THEM and stop wasting everyone's time whinging about WebDU! Dale Fraser wrote: The cost comes in to question where you wish to send multiple people. If I want to send 3 people to WebDu then I have no hope of getting that approved with flights / accommodation. It adds up and the business will question why they all need to go. If it was in Melbourne I would have no issue. Dale, if you think that 1 x trip to MAX is CHEAPER than 4 x trips to WebDU then I want some of the drugs you've been smoking. I'd hazard a guess that an 'average' trip to MAX for a single punter including airfare, accom and conference ticket (not including gambling and bordello visits) would be around 5K. By my 'rough' guestimates 4 x WebDU tickets from Melbourne would set you back a tad over 1K a head. Sounds more like you just don't know how to formulate a strong enough argument to get your team up to Sydney (despite it being cheaper than your trip to MAX).

I've got the answer to everyones problems - why not get adobe to cough up some $$ breeze the freakin presos live (cameraman in eachsession and a web account)to those who pay a small fee towards the Attendees bar tab? Surely thats gold. That way you Melbournites get to see some of the WebDU love and I get to see the sessions i missed due to the hangover I had from drinking at the bar the night before based on the funds you melbournites donated for the breeze preso itself.

[cfaussie] Re: webDU 2007: 22-23 March 2007, Hilton Sydney
I agree with Dale too. I've attended the first conference in 2003. At that time, I'd had to get our company's CEO to approve my interstate travelling because it's not in Melbourne. So I've given up following events since it was too much for me. I hope Adobe will organise similar events like Macromedia did in every state as I understand it's impossible for Daemon.

Right, A big event run by a commercial company, not for profit? Sounds like a load of crap. Just because it doesnt make a profit isnt the same as it being NFP. I dont see any references anywhere on the site to it being NFP which is normally splashed everywhere when it is. One quote from the website Our plan is to profit share with the speaker.
