23 people registered so far. I've just done a mail merge out to everyone who's ever attended.

This is the 7th IRL we've done. Over that time we've had 265 registrations. Crazy!

It would be really cool if we could get some sponsors and some more prizes ;)

Any offers?

<- don't ask me where I am - I haven't a clue: its a tech thing ;)
Housewife computerer: not particularly great at either.
And don't take me too seriously.

Registered. My first IRL!

Tuihana is excellent for bus access but I noticed only parking is mentioned in the directions?

There's excellent access from Dominion Rd buses (from the Civic and Symonds St if coming from the city centre) and only 10 mins walk from Kingsland Station (via Onslow Rd, Monkey Hill Reserve and George St). 5 mins walk from Outer Link.

More importantly it's one of the few places I've been successful in getting an uber from when I've needed it too.

Thanks for the pointer, I've updated the confirmation email with your instructions :)

Hey guys

I've managed to secure some give aways for the geekzone event tonight.

I've got 5x VyperVPN premier licences and 5x F-Secure 3 device Antivirus for give aways, if you're interested.

MyRepublic is launching both of these next week, and they RRP at $119USD and $79.95NZD respectively

HTH!
