[AusNOG] linux.conf.au 2011 CFP Closes 7th August 2010

[Jared Ring]

linux.conf.au has announced the opening of its Call for Papers for 
lca2011 conference.

The linux.conf.au 2011 organisers now welcome proposals of papers from 
all areas of the open source community. linux.conf.au is a fun, 
informal, seriously technical conference. In 2011 it will also cater to 
a range of end users including those new to the open source community.

"We're excited to be carrying on the proud tradition of linux.conf.au in 
our home city of Brisbane." said Shaun Nykvist, director of lca2011. 
"We're mindful of the important role that this conference plays in the 
F/OSS community both here in Australia and internationally. We are 
focussed on bringing knowledgeable and exciting speakers, the latest and 
finest of Linux and F/OSS expertise, and also a few innovations to 
Brisbane lca in January 2011." said Nykvist.

The theme of this years conference is "follow the flow". The warm and 
friendly river-side Brisbane will be hosting the best linux.conf.au 
ever. What does the theme "follow the flow mean"? It is about the 
growing movement of open source, whether its down at the kernel level or 
over in libre graphics.

The call for papers will remain open until the 7th of August, 2010.

More information for those wanting to submit a paper is available at the
