In an effort to stop this chestnut being repeated more than it already has
(gar), the event mentioned here was *NOT* sponsored by Linux Australia. It
is an inappropriate association to make and/or repeat, because it does not
reflect our community expectations or standards.

It might be accurate to say "an Open Source related event", but it seems a
bit unfair to mention it without noting that the behaviour was censured at
the time.
