From jarich at perltraining.com.au Tue Dec 11 19:28:25 2007 From: jarich at perltraining.com.au (jarich at perltraining.com.au) Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2007 14:28:25 +1100 (EST) Subject: [Canberra-pm] Linux.conf.au Open Day - 2nd February 2008 Message-ID: <20071212032825.4C0A4A8C11@teddybear.perltraining.com.au> Dear Canberra PM members, Next year from January 28th - February 2nd, Melbourne will host one of the world's best FOSS conferences: Linux.conf.au. On the last day, Saturday February 2nd we will be running an Open Day for the general public to showcase open source. The 2007 open day had a fantastic line-up of displays including: - Virtual Reality - Blender 3D - One Laptop Per Child - MythTV - Linux Gaming (for more see: http://www.linux.org.au/conf/2007/OpenDay.html) To make this day more fabulous, I would like to invite your group to host a community table. There are only three requirements: - Every demo must have Open Source involved. - Your stand must be accessible to the general public. - You need to supply your own computers, flyers and people. In return, we'll supply you with tables, chairs, power sources, wireless (hopefully) and visitors. With luck you can raise the profile of your user group (and get some more members) while increasing the attendees' awareness of Open Source. If your group would be interested in having a stand, please let me know by eithe r responding to this email or contacting openday at mel8ourne.org If you'd like to attend or if you know anyone who might like to attend please register (it's free) at: http://linux.conf.au/programme/open-day Everyone is welcome and I encourage you to bring your friends and family. All the best, Jacinta From jarich at perltraining.com.au Tue Dec 11 19:38:34 2007 From: jarich at perltraining.com.au (Jacinta Richardson) Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2007 14:38:34 +1100 Subject: [Canberra-pm] Linux.conf.au Open Day - 2nd February 2008 In-Reply-To: <20071212032825.4C0A4A8C11@teddybear.perltraining.com.au> References: <20071212032825.4C0A4A8C11@teddybear.perltraining.com.au> Message-ID: <475F57BA.8050806@perltraining.com.au> Sorry about this everyone, I could have sworn I was sending this to Melbourne PM!
