OzHaskell

There is AngloHaskell and now AmeroHaskell. Doesn't that call for OzHaskell?

Possible dates

Shall we try to organise something for sometime over the summer? Avoiding the summer holidays, either of the following two periods seem attractive:

• last week of November/first week of December or
• last week of January/first week of February.

(Add any additional periods that you would find attractive and/or comment on suitability.)

Format

How about the following?

• One day meeting with informal talks and demos (preferably on a Friday)
• There could be a second, even less formal day, for those who want to hang out some more and maybe some hacking
• Run it at the University of New South Wales, Sydney

(Add your thoughts to the above.)
