[Aust-NZ] Melbourne Open GIS September 2011 Meetup

[Jody Garnett]

 Thanks for making this go Simone; grass roots events are exactly what local chapters are supposed to be about. 

Can I ask how you found space? I would love to have a gathering is Brisbane (or even a code sprint) but am always held back by the financial hurdle of finding a venue. In Canada we always had a local company provide room; but in Australia insurance considerations seem to get in the way.
