Redwyre's forum post is definately newsworthy, so here it is...
SEQ-GRAPH is the South East Queensland Chapter of SIGGRAPH, website is at http://www.qmug.net/siggraph/
Dear Colleague,
The SEQGRAPH steering committee is pleased to announce the first public meeting for 2004 on the 19th February at QANTM House. Neville Scott from Hewlett Packard will be presenting a talk on HP's latest range of graphics workstations.
Furthermore, we have some exciting developments for 2004.
SEQGRAPH was officially chartered as a chapter of SIGGRAPH on the 14th January this year. This gives use the benefits of being a part of the larger SIGGRAPH community that is in Australia. We are one of six chapters in Australia, an indication of the strength of our nation's computer graphics community.
The chartering of our chapter means that we will soon be able to offer "Book Club" benefits to our members, such as discounts and free books for reviewing. More on this soon...
We also have a winner for the SEQGRAPH logo competition. Julius Baginski was successful with his entry, which will be unveiled at our February meeting. Many thanks to those who submitted logos to the competition.
There are some exciting meetings planned for this year, including a presentation on March 18th by Brett Feeney, from Animal Logic. His CV includes work with the Matrix, Lord of the Rings and Moulin Rouge to name a few.
So, we look forward to seeing you on February 19th. Details of the meeting follows:
Date : 19th February
Time : 6:30pm
Location : Level 9, QANTM House, 138 Albert St, Brisbane CBD Presenter : Neville Scott, Hewlett Packard

Yours Sincerely,
