Actually, I was referring to people from Adelaide, meeting up in Adelaide. My mistake. There are very few startup related events, and it would be good to meet some fellow HNers.
Yeah I've been to a couple of recent presentations - am part of it on Facebook. There are a couple of characters, but most attendees seem to either be aspiring life coaches or business parasites. I've yet to meet a programmer (at least one who knew what he was talking about).
