I think I am implictly on this list anyways as the most recent ghost,
but I'm happy to help out bidding teams. Specifically, the Canberra bid
didn't take all that long to write, isn't all that glossy (its just a
Google doc), and was a little sarcastic. I'm happy enough to share it
with bidders.

I don't want to share it more publicly that that because its full of
spoilers for the conference, and laughably wrong compared to the actual
conference.

Yeah, the Canberra bid is a 22 page Google doc -- the secret is lots of
pictures. No graphic design was harmed in the making of it except for a
logo we didn't really need at that stage.
