Might be interesting. Depending on location and content. Auckland is probably the best. Easier (*) for flying options than Hamilton, yet its easy to travel to Auckland from Hamilton. So that probably covers 60% of the people likely to attend. (*) No $99 one way tickets from Christchurch to Hamilton from the major carriers. I think joining it to another show/conference is probably easy up front. Probably good idea to keep it small the first time around, don't bite off to much. Even consider say tacking it on to one of the Tech Pacific Road Shows or similar. Almost vendor neutral, easy venue, likely audience is increased 10 fold. Again it all depends on the target content/audience. -- Nicholas Lee - nj.lee at plumtree.co dot nz, somewhere on the fish Maui caught. gpg. 8072 4F86 EDCD 4FC1 18EF 5BDD 07B0 9597 6D58 D70C icq. 1612865 Quixotic Eccentricity - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
