Hi Ian, NICTA would be pleased to offer to host the second (or any future) OWL-WG F2F in Sydney Australia, timeframe open. Several OWL-WG members are planning to visit us in Australia around mid next year, so it may be more favoured than you might think :-) (BTW if any working group members would *like* to visit NICTA as visiting researchers in future, pop me an email). NICTA is a national organization and has the ability to host events/visitors in other Australian locations as well (Canberra, Melbourne and Brisbane for starters) if that is of interest. NICTA is an Australian government sponsored Centre of Excellence for Information and Communication Technology development and innovation. It has close ties with the local Australian W3C office, with whom we have jointly run several standards-related forums and events.
