Don't have a car so can only meet somewhere that I can easily cycle/public transport to - area that works for me is roughly CBD-Carlton-Northcote.

Yes, this is a great idea!

Maybe if there's enough Melbournites who want to meet, we could have a Melbourne version of the French MR meetup.

I've got a Sony 505, but I've been thinking about the iliad, because of all the pdf's I've got.

The CBD would suit me too - anytime.

why don't you start a thread about that in the lounge and see how many Melbournites there are ? a Melbourne meet is a great idea, i think !

i'm thrilled to see how many people are signing up to give demos ! brilliant ! thanks everybody !
