>> Linux Australia needs *you!*
Mon, Nov 28th 11:39am 2005 >> Linux
The next couple of months is going to see discussion of a few important topics on the main Linux Australia mailing list:
http://lists.linux.org.au/listinfo/linux-aus
and I want to have as many members as possible involved to make sure they have an opportunity to have their say. At the moment LA has more than 800 members but less than 300 of them are on the linux-aus mailing list, which means the rest will miss out on discussions about:
* Reviewing the structure of LA to so it can continue to grow and support the AU FOSS community.
* Discussion of bids for LCA2007 and the selection of the host city.
* Submissions regarding the changes to Australia's intellectual property laws.
* Planning the LA presence at LinuxWorld and CeBIT next year.
* Nominations and voting for the next Committee.
So if you're not already subscribed to linux-aus *please* do so ASAP. And if you're not yet a member, sign up now! It's free:

I was invited to be a guest speaker tonight at a post-grad class at Swinburne Uni, talking to a bunch of people about eBusiness. Turns out to be not quite what I expected! I had prepared on the basis that I was to talk to students intending to become eBusiness professionals so I intended to do a talk about the life of a web developer, but when I got there I discovered it was a business management course and what they really wanted to know about was use of eBusiness in their businesses.
It's a good thing I didn't put any serious preparation into the slides because I had to just ad-lib it anyway. Still managed to talk for an hour and a half though!
