Linux.conf.au kicks off next week
Organisers of the annual conference, Linux.conf.au are confident a roadmap for promoting the open source community in the region will be developed by the end of the six-day event starting next week.
The Linux.conf.au event is the largest annual gathering of open source software professionals and enthusiasts in the southern hemisphere and has been running for 11 years, having first started in Melbourne.
"What the linux.conf.au conference is about is getting people together and also forming that roadmap for the future," co-director Susanne Ruthven said. "That is what we want the conference to achieve."
Unlike the early years, which were dominated by a male crowd, the conference has evolved to attract a far broader range of delegates. This year the organisers are expecting 15 per cent of participants to be female, 15 per cent to be international visitors (excl. Australia) and 2 per cent to be disabled persons.
