Hi Dave,

Yes, I was wondering the same thing. 

Should we get some NZ-Aust OSGeo cards printed on which we can hand write our
details at least until we get the incorporation done. Perhaps with a
membership invitation via the website

I expect the event should present some great networking opportunities with
folks from Sydney Convention Centre and perhaps from the broader media
industry.

If anyone knows of such a thing as "OSGeo Cards" please let me know there is
still time to order some in.

I trust that he is going on "official OSGeo business"
(you know, measuring room sizes and such), rather
than accepting "free gifts" from an as yet unselected
conference venue, which could lead to mutterings of
'impropriety' ;-)

Of course it would be entirely appropriate for the
Sydney Convention Center and Visitors Bureau to offer free
plane tickets to Sydney to people from 'northerly' English-
speaking countries, where those people live in a city
with the same name as an Australian state :-)
