Me for one.

I know Tuna has already done considerable investigation into this subject.

This was working on 4 people per apartment. The sticky issue with theses is the bathroom. As there is usually only one.

The Vulcan maybe equal distance to the Powerhouse, but its the same distance around Darling harbour again to the conference centre. So it maybe time to find new accommodation.

Well, whatever you reckon is the best idea, I'll go in on that. Sleep is fairly limited anyway so I'm not too fussy. I'm planning on flying in on Tuesday (attending a Wednesday workshop) and flying out Sunday.

I'm not going this year as I have finally managed to find time to take my wife on our honeymoon

Hopefully I can make next year. I would have liked to hear what Mr. Holovaty had to say. I am a big admirer of Django.

I would book flights at least people ASAP, especially if you are coming back on Sunday after hack day and the after after party. Two planes on the way back are already full.

Those looking seriously looking at shared accommodation need to put their hand up soon.

WoolBrokers is FULL!

Maze Backpackers will be from $27 (shared dorm) per day. to $50 for singles per day. But if we get a group together the price will drop. Remember its a backpacker.

Holiday Inn - Booked for that week
Crowne Plaza - not booked out ~ $270 ppn.
Grand Mercure Apartments - First $4 peeps - $52.00 ppn, Next 4 $78 ppn
- Queen (does not split), 2 Singles, 2 Baths - internet $26 per day all you can eat

I need numbers ASAP, Especially for the first rate ($52)
