I feel my ears burning... :)

Sorry, have been out of reach for a couple of days but I've just caught up
on this discussion.  I'm on the LCA 2009 organising team if that is any
assistance... probably more of a hindrance since I will be flat out with
main LCA stuff over that time, and as you say, there aren't many other
Hobart editors.  However if anyone wants to present a WMAU miniconf I am
happy to support it and assist where possible!

If it doesn't happen... we can still have a wikimeet at some stage if people
are going to be there anyway!

Regards,

Charles
