some more places to send the announcement! :)<br>
<br>
This is your first chance to reach out... so send it far and
wide.<br>
<br>
LCA is an international conference in Australia - so think
outside the<br>
wide brown land, and look for lists, groups and meetups
beyond our<br>
shores too. Look for special interest targets that
intersect with free<br>
and open source software and hardware.<br>
<br>
Here's some I've found to get you started! :)<br>

She's spoken at LCA, and has recently joined the ada
initiative advisory<br>
board - so she'd be good to reach out to.<br>
<br>
And if we're going to try and woo the Mining sector... it
might be worth<br>
exploring these<br>

And finally... This really is an international conference...
so get this<br>
out to Free, Libre, Open Source Software and Open Hardware
groups all<br>
around the world.<br>
