Hi Janine,
well funny you should ask...I've been meaning to pop a site up for this year's beano. Probably in the next week or so..
Fri Oct 16th - workshop day, Andrew Eddie, Sam Moffat spilling the tech juice as ever. For this high level training intensive, it will be around $250 per session (half day), I predict. Or thereabouts.
Sat Oct 17th - conference day - as cheap as I can make it. All I can say right now is that i want it to be less than last year. Hopefully around $75 (incl food) for this info-filled networking festival of goodness.
Oh and of course our champion keynotes:
Andrew Eddie and Sam Moffat (Joomla core team development coordinators - who are right now busy coding J1.6 - Do Not Disturb. October should be just the moment to get the lowdown on 1.6 tech tips). Andrew also runs the jXtended Joomla extensions site and theartofjoomla tutorials site. Sam gets in with the Google summer of code.
Brad Baker (Joomla core team infrastucture coordinator and forum admin). Brad is the all round good guy supporting joomla in forums and hosting.
more soon....
