Our yearly conference provides a forum for System Administrators of all platforms and levels of experience to gather together and share their experiences. Further it provides an excellent opportunity to meet and network with acknowledged experts in the field. SAGE-AU 2009 will be held in the Gold Coast from the 10th-14th August. The theme this year is "Internet Content Filtering," and talks or tutorials covering this or related fields are particularly welcomed.
