I’ve always wanted to submit a cool MediaWiki talk to these conferences, but I have no idea what I’d talk about (or whether I’m even experienced enough to talk about anything at a conference). Are there any guidelines on what would make a good talk? -- Tyler Romeo 0xC86B42DF

I got a balloon ride the year I spoke. It was trumped the next year by a helicopter ride. Definitely an amazing trip.
Wow, when was that?! I got no such thing :)
In 2012 they did take all the speakers a show (and dinner) at a staged Gold Rush town (which is the *the* tourist attraction in Ballarat), in 2014 it was just a dinner at the local marina.
'05 for balloons over lovely Canberra, '06 for helicopters over Sydney harbor. (I only went in '05, heard about '06 later.) Maybe they've toned it down a little, but still a great conference!
