[Skeeve Stevens]

oooooook... that's what I was looking for ;-)  You've done this before
James.

I'm happy to be a member of the programme committee if James will have me.
That would be 2 Sydney based people.

Being  subset of an already (albeit, yet to be) organized event, it  
shouldn't be too difficult to throw something together.

I propose something along the lines of ...

Organizing Committee
   - Budgets, logistics, coordination w/AUSCERT, marketing,  
sponsorship, decision ratification
   - Responsible for formation of sub-committees
   - To consist of chair, co-chair, and 4 members
(Chair: Bambi, Co-Chair: TBA, Members: TBA)

Program Committee
   - Track outlines, calls for papers, selection of speakers, general  
program matters
   - Responsible to the OC on content of event
   - To consist of chair, co-chair and 3 volunteers
(Chair: TBA, Co-Chair: TBA, Members: TBA)

Working Bee Pool
   - Assigned task from OC
   - Individually responsible for tasks, jointly responsible for  
management of tasks.
        - printing, design, registration, venue specific tasks, event  
co-ordination, day of event management
   - To consist of 8-10 people, no less than 4 located in the host  
city region
(Chair: TBA, Co-Chair: TBA, Members: TBA)

I'm happy to throw my hat in for Program committee chair.
