* Conference Opens:?21st January 2019


== HOW TO SUBMIT ==

Create an account or login at?https://linux.conf.au/dashboard/
<https://linux.conf.au/dashboard/>?and
click the link to submit your proposal.


== ABOUT?LINUX.CONF.AU <http://linux.conf.au/>?==

linux.conf.au <http://linux.conf.au/>?is a conference where people
gather to learn about the
entire world of Free and Open Source Software, directly from the
people who contribute.? Many of these contributors give scheduled
presentations, but much interaction occurs in-between and after formal
sessions between all attendees. Our aim is to create a deeply
technical conference where we bring together industry leaders and
experts on a wide range of subjects.

linux.conf.au <http://linux.conf.au/>?welcomes submissions from
first-time and seasoned
speakers, from all free and open technology communities, and all walks
of life. We respect and encourage diversity at our conference.


== CONFERENCE THEME ==

Our theme for?linux.conf.au <http://linux.conf.au/>?2019 is "The Linux
of Things". Building on
the role that Linux plays in our everyday lives, we will address
IoT-related opportunities and concerns from the purely technical
through environmental, health, privacy, security and more. Please let
this inspire you, but not restrict you - we will still have many talks
about other interesting things in our community.

For some suggestions to get you started with your proposal ideas
please visit the CFP page on the?linux.conf.au
<http://linux.conf.au/>?website.

== PROPOSAL TYPES ==

We're accepting submissions for three different types of proposal:

* Presentation (45 minutes): These are generally presented in lecture
? format and form the bulk of the available conference slots.
* Tutorial (100 minutes): These are generally presented in a classroom
? format. They should be interactive or hands-on in nature. Tutorials
? are expected to have a specific learning outcome for attendees.
* Miniconf (full-day): Single-track mini-conferences that run for the
? duration of a day on either?Monday?or?Tuesday. We provide the room,
? and you provide the speakers. Together, you can explore a field in
? Free and Open Source software in depth.


== PROPOSER RECOGNITION ==

In recognition of the value that presenters and miniconf organisers
bring to our conference, once a proposal is accepted, one presenter or
organiser per proposal is entitled to:
* Free registration, which holds all of the benefits of a Professional
? Delegate Ticket
* A complimentary ticket to the Speakers' Dinner, with additional
? tickets for significant others and children available for purchase.
* 50% off the advertised price for sponsorship at the White-Flippered
? Blue Penguin tier.

If your proposal includes more than one presenter or organiser, these
additional people will be entitled to:
* Professional or hobbyist registration at the Early Bird rate,
? regardless of whether the Early Bird rate is generally available
* Speakers' dinner tickets available for purchase at cost

Important Note for miniconf organisers: These discounts apply to the
organisers only. All participants in your miniconf must arrange or
purchase tickets for themselves via the regular ticket sales process
or they may not be able to attend!

As a volunteer-run non-profit conference,?linux.conf.au
<http://linux.conf.au/>?does not pay
speakers to present at the conference; but you may be eligible for
financial assistance.


== FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ==

linux.conf.au <http://linux.conf.au/>?is able to provide limited
financial assistance for some speakers.

Financial assistance may be provided to cover expenses that might
otherwise prohibit a speaker from attending such as:
* Cost of flight
* Accommodation
* Other accessibility related costs

To be considered for assistance you can indicate this when making your
proposal. We will try to accommodate as many requests for assistance
as possible within our limited budget.


== ACCESSIBILITY ==

linux.conf.au <http://linux.conf.au/>?aims to be accommodating to
everyone who wants to attend
or present at the conference. We recognise that some people face
accessibility challenges. If you have special accessibility
requirements, you can provide that information when submitting your
proposal so that we can plan to properly accommodate you.

We recognise that childcare and meeting dietary requirements also fall
under the general principle of making it possible for everyone to
participate, and will be announcing our offering for these in the near
future; if you have concerns or needs in these areas, or in any area
that would impact your ability to participate, please let us when
submitting your proposal.


== CODE OF CONDUCT ==

By agreeing to present at or attend the conference you are agreeing to
abide by the terms and conditions
(https://linux.conf.au/attend/terms-and-conditions/
<https://linux.conf.au/attend/terms-and-conditions/>). We require all
speakers and delegates to have read, understood, and act according to
the standards set forth in our Code of Conduct
(https://linux.conf.au/attend/code-of-conduct/
<https://linux.conf.au/attend/code-of-conduct/>).


== RECORDING ==

To increase the number of people that can view your presentation,
linux.conf.au <http://linux.conf.au/>?will record your talk and make it
publicly available
after the event. We plan to release recordings of every talk at the
conference under a Creative Commons Share-Alike Licence. When
submitting your proposal you may note that you do not wish to have
your talk released, although we prefer and encourage all presentations
to be recorded.


== LICENSING ==

If the subject of your presentation is software, you must ensure the
software has an Open Source Initiative-approved licence at the time of
the close of our CFP.

Subject: [Taslug] Hobart TasLUG Meeting: Thursday 19 July
Message-ID: <763aa891-9646-a79f-450e-ceeebb101560@theintraweb.net>

Hello All,

Talks at Hobart TasLUG are back! At the meeting this month we will be 
having two short talks:


   ## Tim Serong ##
   Talking about how he got a Raspberry Pi to talk to his solar PV
   inverter to monitory its electricity generation.

   ## Chris Barnard ##
   Talking about his participation in the TasNetwork emPOWERing You
   Trial [1]


By happy coincidence both of these talks about electricity related 
topics will be held at our new venue: Enterprize - which just happens to 
be located in the old Hydro Electrical Commission building.


    When: Thursday 19 July, 2018 - 6:00pm for a 6:30pm start

   Where: Enterprize - Hobart
          5th floor, Hobart City Council Building
          24 Davey Street
          (map: https://goo.gl/maps/SNWs8FJcvEk)

Note: the doors inside the foyer will be locked, so you will need to use 
the intercom to let us know to buzz you in. However, if you arrive after 
6:30pm, then I'll leave a note with a phone number to call as the 
intercom isn't near where the talks will be.


Enterprize provide a selection of alcoholic/non-alcoholic drinks and 
coffee pods for the appropriate donation, as well as free instant coffee 
and tea. So come at 6:00pm, get a drink, and have a bit of a mingle 
before the talks start at 6:30pm. We will also be heading out to find 
somewhere to eat afterwards for those interested.

I would like to to extend a big thank you to Enterprize for generously 
allowing us to use their space to hold regular meetings into the future.

SeeYa,
John.

Hey,
Does being at enterprise give access to recording or streaming facilities?

Hello Karl,

There is no existing setup at Enterprize that we can utilise. I did 
notice in their recent newsletter that they have just received approval 
for a Federal Regional Development grant and when we did a tour through 
the place a couple of weeks back they mentioned they were hoping to put 
the money towards a refit of the office space. So it may be something 
they might look at in the future... but there are no specifics that I'm 
aware of.

They do provide a good Internet connection through, so it may be 
possible for us to rig up something ourselves.

Mainly I think this first meeting will be about getting familiar with 
the new space... if we can get the projector to work I'll consider it a 
success :D

I think it would be great to be more inclusive of people who can't 
attend in person, so if someone is willing to take it upon themselves to 
organise some sort of video stream, that would be great.

SeeYa,
John.
