I hate to be 'that guy' but not Gloria Jeans please.

Gloria Jean's Coffees used to sponsor what was a Hillsong-related initiative Mercy Ministries, a pro-life charity. Peter Irvine was executive director of Mercy Ministries until March 2008. "Gloria Jean's Coffees chose to support Mercy Ministries because there is a need in Australia for a dedicated charity that helps women with these difficult issues," said Peter Irvine, Co-Founder of Gloria Jean's Coffees. In December 2009, Irvine and other former directors were found by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission to have engaged in false and misleading conduct and ordered to pay $1,050 to each of the 110 young women who took part in their programs.

I like that gloria jeans because its usually pretty quiet on weekends, and although they may not support a womans right to choose they do make very nice coffees

I'm really sorry Peter but I don't drink coffee so I don't have any other good suggestions for coffee places.

That said, it's not like we are strapped for choice. ;)

Just a question aimed at all such proposed "Whoopee Parties" in Australia: are you also going to inform everyone that the gnome DE is to be replaced by Unity in 6 months time (and with a question mark about KDE for the KDE users)?

Good work!

Looks like a few people are keen to get together for the release, would someone be able to write this up on the loco.u.c site? It just makes it easier to see who is going and all the details are in one place. The direct link is http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-au/events and if you need a hand just shoot me an email offlist or drop into IRC. I look forward to seeing the photos.
