What is linux.conf.au?
----------------------------
 
linux.conf.au (LCA) is an open source conference. It brings together Linux and open source enthusiasts and is the biggest conference of its kind in the southern hemisphere. More information about the conference is at linux.conf.au.
 
Miniconfs (miniature conferences) are community-organised sessions designed to bring together like-minded delegates with interests in a specific field. They are run within the framework of the broader LCA event, and provide excellent opportunities for professional networking and developing presentation experience.

I love the idea of talking at a linux conf but Jan13 feels too soon. Shame since i have a commission in the Canberra Centennial in March that will use open source tech, community involvement and smart crafts, but I just don't know I could get everything together in time to talk about it in Jan. Besides it's always better to discuss what you did and how it worked instead of what you plan to do.

The next year, though... by Jan14 I'll have a world of things to present :)
