[Linux-aus] linux.conf.au 2016 Geelong - CfP Update

Hi Simon,

It's completely unprecedented ;-)

the 6th or "today" ?

Thanks for seeking clarification on this, we will also be extending the
deadline for Miniconfs. The wording was such as it was not originally our
intention but we feel that we would like to give everyone as much time as
possible.

The CfP page now has the updated date.

Regards,
David
