In October 2009, the Dataflex Developers and Users Group 10th annual Corroboree returns to Melbourne Victoria from 28 to 31 October 2009! It was Victoria where the Corroboree was born on March 2000.

The conference will be held at the Rydges Melbourne hotel. We will start with Welcoming Drinks on Wednesday the 28th of October 6pm where we can meet old and new friends in an informal atmosphere, with the formal presentations on Thursday, Friday and closing Saturday the 31th 12pm. 

As usual the Corroboree will be full of presentations by DDUG members, and registration is open for anybody to present a suitable topic. Please contact Marco for details.

As usual, keeping the Corroboree affordable is extremely important to us. We are again able to offer this conference to you inclusive of lunches, welcome drinks, coffees and teas, broadband and the famous dinner for the early bird price of $350, inclusive of $60 membership fee (membership is required for insurance purpose). The early bird registration is available until 31 August 2009. On the first of September the full registration fee of $400 will be charged.
