On top of the technical stuff covered by Alex and Jeremy, I'd suggest
considering adding a page for those you arrive through the old domain
name suggesting that they'll update their bookmarks or the page they
arrived through to record the new domain name, because once the old
.org.au domain DNS record is gone they'll reach either a black hole or
maybe worse - another web site altogether.
