Yesterday Sitecore Australia announced the opening of the Sitecore Australia and NZ User Group (SCAUG). The user group will be the central meeting place for Sitecore developers in the region and contains lots of valuable information and a mailing list for developers to communicate with each other.
The user group was rolled out by Sitecore Australia, but is from now on led by Alistair Deneys, Sitecore MVP.
You can join at http://scaug.sitecoreaustralia.com.au.
