Might I suggest having a link to 'Make The Move' (http://makethemove.net)
perhaps? It should do a good job of introducing people to Free and Open
Source software, Linux and the general FOSS community. This way Linux.au
doesn't have to replicate information already provided at make the move.

I think that is an excellent idea Chris..
