Certainly interested, although I usually go to Queensland straight after 
exams so I'd like to see a date soon. I'd even be interested in sorting 
out food (even cooking), having run far too many camps.

We could also plug the 'hackfest' theme - I wrote the bulk of the MIFARE 
library disconnected from the Internet, for example. This does suffer
from the traditional UCC problem of "come and do... stuff" where a couple 
of people do the work, a few hangers-on try and pick up a few things, and 
a few annoying people hang around and provide an anticontribution. Still, 
I can think of a couple of fun projects that would benefit from a bunch 
of UCCans looking at them.
