I see that there is now offical talk of a Code Camp in Christchurch, New Zealand in November 2007 which is good to see. I hope for some confirmed dates soon.
This is great news as the Mainland as we call it (the South Island of New Zealand) has never had a Code Camp before.
For pre-registrations and more details see http://dot.net.nz/Default.aspx?tabid=108
The theme of the code camp is Next generation, back to basics.
New releases of C#, VB, .Net, ASP and SQL are iminent. This code camp will focus on getting up to speed with all of this, plus cover migration stratigies and many non-technology specific topics such as Architecture and Development Life Cycle. Hopefully something for everyone - noobs, gurus, youg and old.
I have been asked to speak on IIS 7 and will be providing a session on this somewhere over the two day event.
I also spoke to Daniel Wissa ( at TechEd 2007) who runs the Christchurch .NET user group with Peter Jones [MVP] about running a shared session some time this year on Windows Vista Gadget Development. The code camp may be a good time for this session as well.
I am trying to get some sponser support as well - but I will keep it quiet until I know the result.
