Countdown to linux.conf.au 2007
===============================
32 DAYS TO GO
News:
1) Another cat out of the bag! This time it's Chris Blizzard, keynoting at
linux.conf.au 2007... Chris is a director of the Mozilla Corporation,
heads up One Laptop Per Child software development at Red Hat, and has
hacked on numerous projects including Mozilla and GNOME. Addicted to the
bleeding edge and driving mass adoption of Free Software, he is a one
man Statler and Waldorf. Chris has the words "freedom" and "innovation"
tattooed under his eyelids. This announcement should not be used as a
factual reference on Wikipedia.

2) If you're in town for linux.conf.au, and you're a multimedia developer
working on Free Software, make sure you don't miss the Foundations of
Open Media Software (FOMS) developer meeting, held on the Thursday and
Friday ahead of the main conference. This is a no-holds-barred working
meeting put together by developers, for developers, to map out the next
steps towards open media and Free Software world domination. Check out
their website for more information.

3) Registrations have shot through the 500 mark, and we haven't even hit
the traditional one-month-to-go Procrastinator's Spike yet! Jon Oxer
knows the score. He can smell inevitability a mile away. Make sure you
register soon, to secure your spot at linux.conf.au -- not to mention
on-site accommodation and dinner tickets... Oh wait, I just mentioned
them. Over to you, Jon.
