FWIW, Id happily travel to Hamilton for this sort of event.. which means I can theoretically let 3 other Aucklanders hitch with me... If i needed to travel much further beyond Hamilton, it'd want to be a Weekend event tho, where Hamilton I could probably get away with being down there just for a day and/or overnight, depending on when im required back in Auckland... The advantage to Auckland - and Im pretty certain that if I asked, I could get us a venue in the Manukau Institute of Technology IS Dept - Is the reduced travel for a fair number of NZNOG'rs who work in/around Auckland - and that ppl who want to fly in, esp ppl like Dean - Can fly direct to Auckland. Having said that if it is in Auckland, I live not far from the Airport too if thats of any use to anyone... happy to play Taxi. Mark. At 11:43 10/01/02 +1300, Allister Clarke wrote:

I work at the Waikato University as well. Tony remembers me ... :-) Currently I work in the teaching rooms here, and I do support of some conferences. If people are interested we could hold it in a teaching room(s) of the required size. Any thoughts?

I'm very enthusiastic about the idea.

The Waikato University Network Research group (WAND) would certainly like to be involved. I expect we would like to supply speakers on network measurement research and some non-presenter audience as well.

We can host the conference if there is interested in that.

NZNOG People,

I have been very surprised by the feedback I've received to the suggestion of a face to face conference this year.

Potential attendees: 6 Offers to provide speaker(s): 3 Offer to help organise speakers: 1 Offer to help organise: 1 Offer of venue: 1

This is a very impressive level of willingness to do the things that need doing. Not so flash on the audience front, though. Could anyone else who'd consider attending please advise me in the not too distant future, preferably including any preferences on date and/or location.

I haven't yet replied to any of those who've offered to help. I hope to do so early next week.
