 Good afternoon Ubuntu-AU'ers,

 I was wondering if anyone in Brisbane would be interested in helping
 out with a SFD event on Saturday the 17th September. For those of you
 not sure what SFD is check out the link [0]. I have asked for interest
 on the HUMBUG list to no avail so was wondering if there was enough
 support from just Ubuntu-AU to go it alone in Brisbane or not.

 If anyone wants to organise (or join in an already organised event -
 see this map [1] for locations already confirmed) please feel free to
 start a new email thread on the list.

 Sure, count me in.  I wanted to organise something but I've been flat out
 with
 work the last few weeks.

 Hopefully I can be there the whole day, but in the worst case I'll be there
 from
 about 12:00 on (after work).  I'll try to get the whole day free however.

 What location did you have in mind?

 Chris.

 Chris,

 Good to see you're keen. As for the venue I had a couple of ideas but
 nothing solid, so far I was thinking either we could try to find a
 computer market, a general market, shopping centre or library to
 invade for the day. The problem with that is I have no idea how good
 the local Brisbane computer market is, does anyone have any feedback
 on if it's well attended?
