Drupal Downunder 2012 is just 2 months away and session proposals close this Monday!

The second Drupal Downunder will be Australasia's biggest Drupal event ever, with Dries Buytaert returning for his second DrupalDownunder, and other keynotes from Dimitri Gaskin and Gian Wild.

And tonnes of other great content, tutorials and sessions by other Drupalistas from Australia, New Zealand and beyond.

Hi all,

After the great success of our first DrupalDownunder in January in Brisbane, and the overwhelming support for the idea we should do it all again - DDU2012 is planned for Jan14-15 in Melbourne.

Temp website with link to sponsor doc now up here:

Jan14-15 is the weekend immediately before linux.conf.au which will be in Ballarat (90 mins drive north west of Melbourne).

Thanks to everyone for coming and making DrupalDownunder 2011 such a fantastic event!

We're looking forward to DrupalDownunder 2012: Melbourne!

Don't forget, if you're in Melbourne or Sydney over the next couple of days to sign-up or pop in to the meet-ups planned with Dries! A fantastic opportunity to talk Drupal and hang out with friends!

Looking forward to seeing you all again next year!

Jeff and Sheree

Thursday 13 Jan: 3:30 pm update

The Brisbane river peaked early this morning and is now receding. Our venue, Bardon Conference Centre, is not one of the immediately affected areas, and whilst right now it would be impossible for many to reach by road, it is anticipated that these roads will be clear by this weekend, leaving a full week for the inner city to recover before the DrupalDownunder weekend.

Therefore, we would like to reassure all attendees that DrupalDownunder is still progressing, and we see no foreseeable circumstances to change this at this stage.

Please use this thread as a place to find out who else may be able to share transport with you.

If you have transport and would be able to provide a seat to someone else, please add a comment below describing where you will be travelling from and at what times, and how many seats you have available.

If you are looking for transport, please add a comment describing where you will be at what times.

You might also be able to find someone to share a taxi with you.

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and as gift we have decided to keep the early bird price in place until Christmas. So for the next 9 days the early bird price will still be available!. For those of you who are still contemplating whether to come but think you've missed your chance to get a bargain, go and grab this gift and sign up whilst the price is right.

Spread the word and sign up now! :)
