Lizzie is a lawyer, writer, and broadcaster with a keen interest in Open Source. She believes Open Source rebalances power in favour of the user by prioritising security by design, rather than imposing a requirement of trust in circumstances where users are not empowered. Lizzie's keynote will be an open discussion of the encryption laws in Australia and an insight into, what she likes to call, the sausage making factory that is Canberra. Delegates will gain an understanding of technological and digital rights issues are discussed in parliament and how introducing a Human Rights Act in Australia could have a positive impact in this space. A bit about Lizzie Lizzie O'Shea is a lawyer, broadcaster, and writer. She is a founder and board member of Digital Rights Watch, which advocates for human rights online. Lizzie also sits on the board of the National Justice Project, Blueprint for Free Speech and the Alliance for Gambling Reform. Lizzie's work has seen her receive the Davis Projects for Peace Prize and she has also been named a Human Rights Hero by Access Now. Interested?

If you are not a member or need assistance with accessing your details please contact secretary at linux.org.au If you wish to nominate yourself, identify the positions you wish to nominate for and get an understanding of what each position involves. Think about what you might bring to the role and prepare a short pitch. Then, accept the nomination you've been given by clicking the 'Accept nomination' link. If you wish to nominate another person for a position, you may wish to contact them first and have a chat to make sure they're happy being nominated. Then follow the 'Nominate' link to nominate them. Once voting is open, you will be able to vote for candidates. Results will be announced at the Linux Australia AGM to be held at linux.conf.au 2020. *Why should I nominate?* Being a member of Linux Australia Council is a fun way to meet new people, work on exciting projects and expand your skill base. It gives you excellent transferable skills to help build your career, and allows you to grow your professional network. It looks great on a CV, and is also a chance to give back to the vibrant Linux and open source ecosystem in Australia and globally. If you're passionate about Linux and open source, it's a great opportunity to help drive and steer Australia's contribution in this field. The roles do require a time commitment. * Ordinary Council Member: a minimum of 2-3 hours per week. * Office bearers: 8-12 hours per week. Please allow for this when considering your nomination. *Why should I run?* If you?ve been nominated, or are thinking of nominating yourself, you should give the opportunity serious consideration. Being on the council is both hard and often thankless work, but it is also incredibly rewarding. Linux Australia can only achieve what it does by its members and helping out with the council responsibilities is a great way to ensure Linux Australia continues to be successful. It is also an opportunity to help the organisation grow, reach into new areas and to succeed on important topics of national relevance. As always, your feedback and questions are warmly welcomed. If you'd like to have a chat with anyone on Council around what it involves, please do make contact.

As Linux Australia?s role has always been to educate people about open source, the day-to-day running of the organisation won?t change if Linux Australia were to become a registered charity. Furthermore, the Linux Australia Council has sought advice from our Auditor and Accountant; both advised that becoming a charity would have no material effect on how Linux Australia is run. For these reasons (and in light of the benefits), the Linux Australia Council would like to register Linux Australia as a charity and for this purpose an application has been submitted to the Australian Charities and Not-for-profit Commission (ACNC, https://www.acnc.gov.au/). However, the ACNC has advised us that our application can not proceed until our constitution explicitly lists our charitable objectives. Before the charitable objectives can be added to the constitution the Linux Australia membership must vote in favour of the change. The authoritative text of the change can be found in the pull request: https://github.com/linuxaustralia/constitution_and_policies/pull/38/files The proposed change adds the following section to the constitution. 43. Objects of the association (1) The objects for which the association is established are: (a) to facilitate the communication of information relating to inventions, results, techniques, and governance of open source and related open technologies; (b) to support open source and related open technologies projects and the contributors to open source and related open technologies; (c) to support and promote the adoption of open source and related open technologies; (d) to support and promote awareness and understanding of open source and related open technologies; (e) to conduct open source and related open technologies advocacy with the government, business and civil society; (f) to create a network for related local and online open source and related open technologies communities. (2) The association must pursue charitable purposes only and must apply its income in promoting those purposes. (3) The association must manage payments and gifts to the association and ensure that they are used to further the stated objects of the association. (4) In the event of the association being wound up, its assets must go to a charitable entity whose objectives aren?t inconsistent with the stated objects of the association. The Linux Australia Council supports this constitutional change as it allows the charitable registration to proceed and provides additional clarity on the purpose of the organisation. To cast a vote for or against this constitutional change, please visit https://www.linux.org.au/ * Click on ?Login? located on the top right hand side of the page and log in. * Click on ?Elections?. * Under ?Constitutional Change to add Statement of Objectives into Constitution?, click on ?Vote in the election?. Voting for this change will be open until 11:59PM (AEDT) 12th January 2020. Results of the vote will be announced during the Linux Australia AGM on the 13th of January 2020 at linux.conf.au (Gold Coast, Queensland).

The breakfast gives women an opportunity to have a 'meta discussion' about diversity and the role women play in the LCA community. Attendees will also explore what our community could do to become a more inclusive place for women and other marginalised groups. Want to join the discussion? While the breakfast is free, tickets are limited to 50 seats. You can register for a ticket today via the registration dashboard at https://linux.conf.au/dashboard/. The breakfast primarily invites delegates from groups that are under-represented at the conference, including women, people from the LGBTQIA+ community, people with an impairment, and people of colour. If you are not a member of an under-represented group, you are welcome to come at the invitation of someone who is. This event has a strictly limited number of tickets available. --- Read this online at https://lca2020.linux.org.au/news/women-open-tech-breakfast/ From kathy at kathyreid.id.au Mon Dec 16 17:37:37 2019 From: kathy at kathyreid.id.au (Kathy Reid) Date: Mon, 16 Dec 2019 17:37:37 +1100 Subject: [Linux-aus] Have you considered nominating for a position on the Linux Australia Council? Message-ID: G'day folx, You will have seen the official notifications go out from the current LA Council. As someone who served on Council for five years as Sec, VP and Pres, I'd like to add a few (unofficial) cents to the conversation. Being a force for change Is there something you think LA doesn't do well? Some sort of change or program you would like to see implemented? Being on Council is an opportunity to do this, to set projects in motion and be able to work with others to see them come to fruition. It might be one big thing, or a bundle of smaller changes you'd like to make, but your efforts can have lasting change on the LA organisation, and, importantly, the wider opensource community LA serves. I wish Linux Australia would do X... If you've ever thought "I wish Linux Australia would do X", well, now is your opportunity to do X. All too often I see comments lamenting that LA doesn't do enough $BLAH, or needs to change their approach to $BLERGH. LA Council is 7 people, supported by a handful of active Subcommittees, like Admin Team, Media & Web Team and event teams. Feedback and a desire to improve are great. Effort to realise lasting change is better. A stronger resume Previous opportunities I've been offered have been in no small part because of my experience heading up Linux Australia. Serving on Council is hard work. It's challenging. But it's also great experience, and employers recognise that. As a volunteer organisation, Linux Australia is reliant on volunteers for organisational survival For better or worse, Linux Aus is an entirely volunteer organisation. Council are not paid, Event organisers are not paid. Linux Aus relies on people putting their hand up to remain strong. We're in an enviable position compared to other not for profits in Australia; we host a portfolio of events, have strong membership, and money in the bank. That position has been won through the laudable efforts of volunteers for over 20 years. Without that volunteer force, the organisation may, over time, take the dwindling and dormant path so many other similar organisations now find themselves in. That means every year people need to put their hand up to keep carrying the organisation forward. Different voices and different perspectives help make us stronger It's great to have a mix of continuity and fresh faces on Council. People with previous experience have organisational history, a network of contacts and know what needs to be done. New additions bring fresh perspectives, ideas and talents, and the ability to question the status quo. Different genders, backgrounds and experiences help different perspectives to be represented and voiced. Please consider nominating.

Dr Sean Brady is a forensic engineer, specialising in investigating the causes of engineering collapses and failures. He believes Open Source is important because it allows the best tools to get into the best hands to use them. Sean's keynote will look at how possessing expertise always seems like a good thing - something that makes us less prone to failure. In this presentation Sean will challenge delegates to dismantle how they use their expertise (regardless of profession), and show them that, as well as making us more specialised, it also dangerously narrows how we see the world. For delegates who believe that their technical expertise is their most important asset, he is going to make them have a deep rethink... A bit about Sean Dr Sean Brady is a forensic engineer who specialises in investigating the causes of engineering collapses and failures. Sean is interested in role played by human and system factors in failure, and he has recently completed a review for the Queensland Government into the causes of fatalities in the Queensland mining industry since 2000.
