[lca-announce] lca2011 venue update

[linux.conf.au Announcements]

Hi all

The conference venue is now officially confirmed as being at the Qld. University of Technology - Kelvin Grove campus.  Unfortunately due to the damage sustained by the recent floods in Brisbane, the original buildings located at QUT  - Gardens Point campus will not be available for the week of the conference.

QUT - Kelvin Grove campus is located on the edge of the CBD approx. 4km from the original location.  Obviously, this does impact on current travel plans to the venue for many people.  We are working hard to present a range of solutions for all, due to this change.  There are a number of options and we will send an email about these and post them on the website shortly.  The good thing is that there are many buses that run directly from the cbd and arrive directly on campus.  More information to follow shortly on the solutions that we will have here.  In the meantime you will be able to find a map of the Kelvin Grove Campus here - http://www.qut.edu.au/about/location/#kgaccord  

We do ask you to be patient as we work through all the logistics - but the conference will go ahead and no miniconfs or conference streams will be canceled. 

Cheers
Shaun
