Yahoo! has been doing a lot over the past year or two building on their Open Web Strategy. In the past, however, Aussie developers were left in the wilderness as our overseas counterparts got all the good juice on initiatives like BOSS, Fire Eagle, Pipes and the many other Yahoo! projects. That’s all about to change now, though.

The Yahoo!7 office has now put in place a wide range of activities to reach out to the local community. Included in those activities are the Yahoo Open Sessions, the first of which will be held on April 22nd at Yahoo’s Sydney offices and has Christian Heilmann, Yahoo’s “International Developer Evangelist” giving a free talk.
