Sydney October Meetup & Support Session

We had a great response to last month's support extravaganza. So based on everyone's positive feedback, we're going to mix it up again. This month we're going to have one of our regular presentations and then the rest of the time will be spent in knowledge clusters for support and coworking. Magda will be away, but has made arrangements to use our regular room, plus at least one of the computer labs with ~10 computers with internet access plus some computers with presentation capabilities.

I have setup another Q&A form for everyone to submit and vote on questions/topics for the support session. http://bit.ly/sdugoct2010
* We'll take the top 5 questions and answer them as a group.
* Then we'll break off into individual groups / pairs and work through people's issues.

Please bring your work on a USB stick or have it available on the internet to use the computers. Otherwise, a laptop with your local environment will be great but we will not be able to provide internet for non-ABC computers

Sign Up!

When: Thursday, Oct 21th
Time: 6:30pm - 9:30pm (Show up around 6:30pm for firm 7pm start!!)
Venue: ABC Centre 700 Harris Street, Ultimo ( Map | Directions )

Venue Details

The ABC Centre has some security issues, so it is important that people arrive early and sign in at the security desk so that we can take everyone into the building at once. Everyone just waits and chats in the lobby, so just look around for us if you're new. If you have problems you can call either of us. Many thanks go to the ABC for providing this venue.

Parking is possible at parking meters around Thomas street and Mary-Anne street. But they take a 2 hour max i think. There are carparks behind the ABC $15 (enter from Thomas street, but on the Chinatown side). Also, you can get all-evening parking at the Citigate (I think that's the name) parking station for (updated) $10 (starting after 5pm, I think, and stays open until well after midnight). It's at the end of the Thomas street dead end (Eastern/Chinatown side), which is very close to the ABC's back entrance.

Agenda:

• Greetings and Welcome new people + Announcements
