[linux.conf.au Announcements]

WELLINGTON, New Zealand – 10th October 2009 – The linux.conf.au 2010
Registrations have now opened!

Registrations for LCA2010 have officially opened with a set of Early
Bird prices to encourage delegates to get in early and book a place at
the leading free and open source software conference of the southern
hemisphere.

"Early Bird Registrations are an excellent way to book your place at
LCA2010 and save money!", said Susanne Ruthven, Co-Director of LCA2010.
"As soon as you see the great line up of speakers and talks in our
schedule, we know you will want to get in quick and take advantage of a
limited number of Early Bird Registration places!".

Professional - The Professional rate is the standard conference rate.
This rate applies to most people who have their companies pay the
conference fees and charge it as a professional development expense, or
for individuals who can legitimately claim it is a tax deduction. The
benefits of a Professional registration include:

      * Attendance at the Professional Delegates Networking Session
      * 1 free ticket to the Penguin Dinner
      * Extra goodies in the swag bag
      * Listed as a Professional Delegate on our website

Hobbyist - The Hobbyist rate is heavily discounted for free software
enthusiasts who are paying out of their own pockets and would otherwise
find it difficult to attend.

Student - This concession rate is reserved for College or University
Students. LCA2010 offers this rate as a form of investment in the future
of the free and open source software community.
