In the last few days we have done a bit of “officialising” of WordCamp Australia.
We have created and registered a non-profit association through which we can both run the WordCamp Australia conference and create a continuing base for WordPress user activity in Australia. See our new wiki for more information on the intended activities and aims of the WordCamp Association.
We have moved both the mailing list and the website to here. As you are probably noticing, the site is rather plain, so we are calling on volunteers to lend us a hand with a theme for the WordCamp website. It’s a great chance to get your work in front of a lot of other WordPress users. Along with this, or separately if you prefer, we are looking for a volunteer to create a visual identity for the WordCamp Association. This visual identity will in turn influence the conference’s visual identity. Please contact us if you are interested.

We have decided to go ahead with a two day event for WordCamp Australia. This will give us plenty of time to focus on the often under-emphasised networking potential of a meet-up like this.
The dates for WordCamp Australia will be Saturday 6th and Sunday 7th of December 2008. The location is yet to be revealed.
You can now tell us if you are planning to attend by using Yahoo’s Upcoming service (requires Yahoo account).
Also don’t forget to join the mailing list for more fun and updates on the event as it falls into place.

Building on the success of WordCamp Melbourne in 2007, a small group of WordPress users and professionals are embarking on the wobbly path to the inaugural WordCamp Australia.
The first WordCamp Australia will be held in Sydney in late November or early December, with an intention to alternate the host city annually with at least Melbourne and possibly other cities in the future.
At this stage we have a small but enthusiastic organising team consisting of:
If you are interested in helping out with organising or just want to send us a suggestion or a word of encouragement, then I suggest you contact us.
