Registration for the Australian and New Zealand teams has now closed. We've had over 100 registrations for both teams, and the quality of those applying has been great. It's going to a hard choice for the selection panels to shortlist each position, before the final draw.

A short list of finalists for both teams will be announced on Wednesday 4 July , and the final positions will be announced on Friday 6 July.

Registrations have also closed for non-profit organisations, with over 30 organisations applying. The winning organisations will be announced on 18 August 2007 at FullCodePress. Again, it's going to be extremely hard choosing, given the quality of those wishing to be considered.

You can still get involved as a volunteer on the day or register as a country organiser for the next FullCodePress event in February 2008.

Recent WIPA event:

Some of the comments received:

  • "I found it an interesting and economical afternoon (I paid my own registration). The presenters kept my interest all the way along and I'm very glad that I attended."
  • "I found the workshop useful especially the presentation on agile project management and usability."
