Hey everybody,

We're excited to offer our full-day Blue Collar Git training on February 6th to kick off DrupalCon. This action-packed, all-day workshop features insightful training and lots of hands-on learning designed to empower you with the knowledge and confidence to start leveraging the Git version control system for your every day workflow.

60 days out from the event, and we're pleased to announce that DrupalCon Sydney's main ticket allocation just sold out!

If you've missed out, there will be a final, very small release of tickets in mid January at the late price of $440 once any unused sponsor coupons and double bookings have been reconciled. You can sign up for the waiting list at http://sydney2013.drupal.org/node/1288, and these tickets will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis.

We're now down to about 25 regular tickets left for DrupalCon Sydney, so it might be your last chance to attend before we lock sales. Grab your ticket now at http://sydney2013.drupal.org/register

If you've received a coupon as a speaker, sponsor or pre-paid ticket, please redeem these coupons ASAP so we can finalise registrations. This can be done via the registration link above, and you'll be prompted for the coupon code on checkout.

Since finalising the accepted sessions for DrupalCon Sydney, we've seen a big spike in ticket sales, and will be close to the venue capacity within the next couple of weeks, so don't miss out and register ASAP.

Hello all,

DrupalCon Sydney is is just around the corner and we need more volunteers to help on out on the day.

In particular, we need volunteers to help out on the registration desk. (6&7 Feb)

There are also positions open for:
- sprint mentors & prep support
- onsite volunteers

If you would like to sign up for any of the position(s), please do so here: https://association.drupal.org/drupalcon/volunteer/sydney

If you have any questions, please email me dcsyd.volunteers@gmail.com

Thanks,
Magda
