Australian Championship 2008 - No Johansen?

One of the other pieces of information in Ian Rogers report on the Nelson Open is the news that GM Darryl Johansen is unlikely to be playing in the 2008 Australian Championship. Apparently a lack of communication between the tournament organisers and himself is to blame.
Nonetheless the organisers of the 2008 Championship have put up a list of players who have entered so far. At this stage it is a list of players playing in the Major (and not the Championship) but I have been informed that GM Antic and IM Lane are almost certain entries.
And if you want to read Rogers Canberra Times chess column (to see the stories yourself), you actually can't get it from the Canberra Times website. But where you can get it from is the Byron Bay Echo, which reprints Ian's column every Tuesday. Just click on the chess link to get the column (and a free horoscope!)

*** Title Edit: Can't even get the name of the tournament right!
