Hello Campers!

I'm pretty unorganised at the best of times, so I should be able to
help unorganise on one of the BarCamp days (B).

I may be able to unorganise (A) but the bub tends to keep me busy...

Should we 'mothball' the BarCamp V2 wiki and put together a V3 site to
collect the relevant info? I guess a firm date will be needed first.

Cheers,
Rob.

Hey Rob, good to hear...

I've contacted everyone who recently expressed interest about helping out
and asked who would like to go on the unorganiser mail list. At this point I
have had only two people respond saying they are happy to be added to this
list.

I'd really like a few more people on this list as this is where some of the
more fundamental decisions will be made. We have to decide on a date and
start sorting out the venue. We also need to get back to sponsors who are
knocking on our door (one of whom has waited patiently for months).

If you want to join the unorganisers mail list, even if only to help out in
small ways, please let me know off list asap. Then we can get moving fast!
:)

Thanks all!
Russ

Thanks
Russ

Gday Russ,

I didn't receive any e-mail, possibly I'm not on your e-mail list. Ready to help when needed, and go on the unorganiser e-mail list.

Goodmornin,
I'd love to help unorganised but I am unavailable March 1. When the date is confirmed I can let you know for sure.

Have a great day all

Excellent stuff!

I've received a range of responses now (on and offlist) offering to join the
mail list. I'll be adding all names to the unorganiser list this arvo and
sending out the key items to start discussing. It may be worthwhile, for
those that can make it, to have a face to face meeting mid next week.

Anyway, best to sort the basics out on the unorganiser list and then come
back here with updates. If you still want to be added to the list, let me
know off-list!

Thanks
Russ

Hi Russ

I volunteered to unhelp awhile ago. I've not received anything further from
you.

But please feel free to add me to the list of unorganisers.

Cheers
Andrew
