major cities around Australia and AUUG members nominate a chapter when
they join. This chapter receives a proportion of the membership fee for
use in local activities. Other types of chapters (perhaps with a
special interest in a particular technology activity) can also be
formed. These chapters receive funding from AUUG on an "as needed"
basis by application to the Management Committee.
Chapters are run by a chapter committee which is responsible to AUUG
(through the Management Committee) for the running and finances of the
chapter. More details on the Chapter Rules and Chapter Policy are

2 MEMBERSHIP BENEFITS
2.1 What do I get for my membership?
AUUG membership provides you with
AUUGN - AUUG's regular technical newsletter. See details above.
Discounted right to use AARNet for mail - see details below.
Discounted access to Email and News services - TMX, Dial-IX and
connect.com.au provide electronic mail and news access to all the
major networks. They all provide substantial discounts to AUUG
members. Contact the AUUG Secretariat for details.
Reciprocal Membership Rights with International Affiliates (e.g.
Usenix, UniForum) - see details below.
Discounts on products and services - AUUG has negotiated discounts at
selected book stores and service suppliers (e.g. Prentice Hall,
Softway). Details are available from the AUUG Secretariat or the
AUUG Members Handbook.
Discounted education - AUUG members have access to technical training
organisations like Softway at discounted rates. Contact the AUUG
Secretariat for details.
AUUG Annual Conference and Exhibition - AUUG members get discounted
registration fees to Australia's premier Open Systems Conference and
the largest Exhibition of UNIX and Open Systems equipment in
Australia. See details below.
AUUG Summer Conferences and Tutorials - AUUG members get discounted
registration fees to local summer conferences (see below). Tutorials
on a wide range of UNIX and Open systems topics are often held in
conjunction with the summer conferences. AUUG members receive
discounted registration fees to these tutorials.
Local technical meetings - AUUG local chapters hold regular local
meetings with featured speakers and /or panels on a wide range of
topics. These meetings vary from chapter to chapter, so you should
contact the local chapter for more details.
2.2 How do I get a discount on AARNet through AUUG?
AARNet accepts Mail Affiliates from the general public for a minimum of
$1000 per annum. AUUG offers its machine-owning members (thus usually
corporate members) the same service for $250 per annum. Non-members can
still profit from the AUUG deal but pay $600 per annum. As AUUG
corporate membership costs $350 per annum, you can see why we have only
one or two non-members involved.
The Mail Affiliate service provides low volume users the right to use
AARNet to carry mail traffic. This service gives you registration of
your host/domain addresses in the Internet nameserver tables. It does
NOT provide or cover the cost of any kind of connection to the Internet
or any other host. In other words, you approach AUUG after you are
connected to get the rights to transport your mail traffic across
AARNet. This will provide you with an MX record which gets your name
"switched on" in the Internet world. If you would like a registration
form, please contact the AUUG Secretariat (see contact details above).
To get help you get connected AUUG conducts a survey which assists
people requiring network connections to find people who are willing to
accept new connections. Contact the AUUG Secretariat for details.
2.3 What do the reciprocal membership rights give me?
AUUG is affiliated with Usenix, UniForum, X/Open, and EurOpen. These
organisations provide AUUG members with access to some of their member
benefits. In general this provides AUUG members with member prices on
publications and member discounts at events. The exact details will
vary with the organisation, consult the AUUG member handbook for
details.
3 EVENTS

4 HISTORY
4.1 What does AUUG stand for?
AUUG was originally formed as the "Australian Unix-systems Users Group",
hence the abbreviation "AUUG". Officially AUUG is now known as "AUUG
Inc.". The group is formally incorporated in the state of Victoria as
"AUUG Inc." (registered number A0016636N).
4.2 How did AUUG get started?
AUUG was founded in 1974 by Professor John Lions from the University of
New South Wales. It began life as an informal gathering of computer
people interested in the "new" operating system UNIX developed by AT&T
Bell Labs. By 1984 the interest had gathered enough momentum that it
reached across Australia.
AUUG adopted a constitution on 27th of August 1984 and was formally
incorporated on the 26th of August 1988.
(*) UNIX is a registered trademark of UNIX System Laboratories Inc.
