Yes, GovHack is a free, intensive event at the ANU in Canberra on 30 to 
31 October. This is sponsored by the Government 2.0 Taskforce and 
supported by CSIRO. Government agencies, locals, state, federal and 
international, might like to come forward with APIs and datasets to be 
used by the participants. Offer datasets and tools via the Wiki:
<http://govhack.org/wiki/>. University and industry researchers can
contact Laurent Lefort at CSIRO: 
<http://www.ict.csiro.au/staff/laurent.lefort/>.

The event will explore  some of the ideas for the use of government 
information discussed at Bar Camp Canberra:
