'For the first time ever, we'll be visiting one city in Australia, for an antipodean increase of infinity percent,' Stack Overflow's Joel Spolsky wrote at the time.
The event was scheduled to be held at the Sydney Showground between October 25-26, with a number of sessions set to cover different methodologies, tips, tricks and development tools for software development.
