I haven't blogged for a little while so I thought I would do a quick catchup.
First up I'm in the process of starting up a new media project. This one's not going to be as focused as Open Source On The Air, instead it's going to be something that allows me to meet interesting people and ask them questions about a wide range of different subjects. I'm currently gathering material for the first episode (which is going to have a focus on the Australian Space community).

Okay, so the Property Council of Australia's rep in the Illawarra David Lang has called for a discussion on future population targets for the Illawarra region, with his first target on the table being 500,000 by 2050.
The Greens have come back and said no way, it will make Wollongong look like the Goldcoast with 20 storey high apartment blocks blighting the skyline.
To be honest I think both of them have issues.

Well, Wollongong Council has announced the proposed new wards and put them up for comment on the Council website.
