I attended the TCANZ (Technical Communicators Association of New Zealand) conference in early September. I was most impressed with the organization, the speakers, the topics covered, and the number of people who attended the conference. The theme this year was "Focus on Users". The lineup of speakers was most impressive: two each from Australia and Canada, and three each from New Zealand and the USA. Most of them were quite entertaining as well as informative. If you're interested, I've put a full report online at http://www.jeanweber.com/about/tcanz03.htm.
