> > OSDC is an Australian grass-roots conference providing Open Source  
> > developers with an opportunity to meet, share, learn, and of course  
> > show-off. OSDC focuses on Open Source developers building solutions  
> > directly for customers and other end users, anything goes as long  
> > as the code or the development platform is Open Source. Last year's  
> > conference attracted over 180 people, 60 talks, and 6 tutorials.  
> > Entry for delegates is kept easy by maintaining a low registration  
> > fee (approx $300), which always includes the conference dinner.

> > conference is "Success in Development & Business". If you are an  
> > Open Source maintainer, developer or user we would encourage you to
