[adelaide.pm] [Melbourne-pm] Let's have a Perl conference in Oceania! Call for committee members

[Jacinta Richardson]

For those who don't know, OSDC was spun up out of Melbourne Perl Mongers'
intent to run a YAPC::AU but responding to the requests of the PHP and
Python folk to be included.  There is now pycon and has been at least one
PHP con.

I fully support a YAPC::AU happening, or you running an OSDC. In either
case I'd love to help.
