linux.conf.au 2005 wrap up

News

Papers/Slides/Presentations

All the papers we have been able to gather from our speakers are now online.
http://lca2005.linux.org.au/Papers for a list of speakers, or more easily
from the Speakers Page http://lca2005.linux.org.au/speakers.php or Program
page http://lca2005.linux.org.au/program.php click on a link to an abstract
for a main conference paper and there is a link at the bottom of the
abstract to the paper/slides/presentation.

Audio/Video

Due to problems with the data recorded to disk from the Fluendo streaming
setup we have been unable to recover any realistically useful audio data.
Some details on this can be found at
http://www.stillhq.com/diary/lca2005/000058.html and 
http://www.stillhq.com/diary/lca2005/000059.html.

Once the Linux Australia mirroring project is live we will upload the 25 GB
of captured Fluendo audio/video data for anyone who wishes to play with and
see if there is any hope of getting more out of this.

CD Mailout

Due to the audio problems we will simply burn all the papers and the website
to CD and post a copy out to all delegates, I apologise for the loss of
audio recordings and the delay in getting all of this sorted, hopefully this
is the only negative marring what I hope was an otherwise very enjoyable
conference for all involved. The CD's will be mastered and posted within the
next 30 days after this email.

Thanks to the linux.conf.au 2005 crew

Zealand are doing some great stuff in preparation for next year's
conference, sign up as soon as the registration opens as they are working
towards making lca2006 the best linux.conf.au ever.

Thanks from the lca2005 crew.

i would have returned your greeting
if it weren't for the way you were looking at me
