If the objective of Linux Australia, is to discourage WA involvement in 
conferences and in Linux Australia, then I guess that holding a 
conference in NZ, is the way to go.

I know of at least one professional attendee at this year's conference, 
who would be highly unlikely to attend a Linux conference in NZ.

It is difficult enough, to get an employer to sponsor attendance at a 
Linux conference, and, getting an employer to sponsor attendance at a 
Linux conference in NZ, for an employee in WA, would be completely out 
of the question.

But then, I suppose, this goes back to the question of what Linux 
Australia is about, and, whether it is really for the whole of 
Australia.
