As part of the linux.conf.au conference to be held in Melbourne, Australia in January 2008 we will be holding a 1 day mini conference on Linux Systems Administration on Tuesday the 29th of January. A reminder to prospective speakers that proposals must be submitted by the 1st of October in order to have the best chance of being accepted. Submissions received after this date have a much lower chance of being accepted and we strongly urge people interested in submitting a proposal to contact us as soon as possible. The Call for Presentations web page at: http://sysadmin.miniconf.org/cfp08.html We are especially after short "How we do things" presentations from people in the field in order to give others a picture of what is happening in the real world. Submissions (and any questions) should be sent to: lca08 @ sysadmin.miniconf.org.
