[PyCon-AU-chat] PyCon Australia needs volunteers!

[Robert Layton]

Hi Chris,

I can be the session chair for the Plenary Hall, Saturday, from morning tea
to lunch, and/or afternoon tea to the lightning talks. My presentation is
between lunch and afternoon tea, so this assumes that my presentation time
stays the same :)

Chase me up on Friday/Saturday if you need someone to handle Sundays -- I
haven't decided yet which talks I'm going to.
I'll be there late on Friday, but hoping to make the CodeWars.

Thanks,

- Robert
