LE>Yes, I //TOTALLY// agree. However :

LE> a) DevCon membership is AUD$600 or so here (~US$540).

  No.  It's less than $300PA for DAP membership and Devcon subscription.  I

LE> b) My employer in this context is very hard to convince.
LE> c) I can't afford it for myself.

   c) It's not that expensive, you can afford it.
