BarCampAdelaide is part of the BarCampAustralia, and will be held at the same time as other BarCamps across Australia on the 3rd and 4th of March, 2007.

BarCamp is an international network of unconferences — open, participatory workshop-events, whose content is provided by participants — focusing on early-stage web applications, and related open source technologies and social protocols.

BarCamp is 100% non-commercial, non-profit and community driven — no one is paid for their time, no one is charged to come and no profits are made.

A BarCamp is an ad-hoc gathering born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, howtos, demos and interaction from participants. If you want to attend, you are encouraged to give a presentation or a demo of some kind. Have a look at wikipedia for more information.

Well we are thinking about renaming BarCampAdelaide to BeachCampAdelaide or perhaps AdelaideBeachCamp. Given that the BarCamp is in a Hall next to the beach at Moana, it'll be summer, beach, weekend ... you get the picture. Bring a towel(janet). and a beach bicycle(kim).

    stephen:Just been doing some research into this whole barcamp.org thing: We have our own domain http://barcampadelaide.org/ It links back to our wiki page. I encourage everyone to use it when advertising both offline and online. (Newspapers love real domain names!)
    Dale:I have been in contact with the secretary of SCARC to put a post to there mail list and to talk to there members about BarCamp and putting on a Demo / presentation
    derek munneke:Hi Guys - Kim gave me a heads up on this event; i am in! RE: the name change to "BeachCamp" - kinda destroys the whole Foo-Bar origin and detracts from the "geeki-ness" -> "nay" vote from me. On the other hand - i think we should call all the Australian BarCamps "BazCamp" - see BarCampAustralia page
