Hi Bret,

We've enquired about having our seminars at Tech Park, but apparently
they won't decide on the "hiring arrangements" for a couple of months
yet.  Additionally, the phrase "hiring arrangements" makes it sounds
as if they may want to charge us for the venue, which unfortunately we
can't afford as the seminars are free for all.  Even if the prices are
reasonable (as was the case with Murdoch Uni, who we approached and
offered us a discounted rate), the attendance is erratic enough that
just charging a couple of dollars admission may not be enough for us
to always break even.

Cameron.
