It was a fine, sunny morning in Brisbane, Australia: home of the Third Annual Haiku Down Under Virtual Conference for Haiku OS Users and Developers. Virtual in the respect that the event was streamed live over the Internet via the uStream service. We accept (and regret) that this service requires Flash, so you can’t use Haiku to view this event, you must use another OS like Windows, Mac or Linux.
This year, HDU (short for Haiku Down Under; not slang for How Dare yoU) were able to book a conference venue at The University of Queensland with projector, white board and limited seating where myself, Sikosis was joined by BeMark and Mojodale.

Better a little late than never - linux.conf.au is now in the call for papers stage. Go to http://lca2011.linux.org.au and sign in and submit an abstract! If you have not submitted a paper or spoken at LCA before then there is plenty of information under the Programme menu.
In 2010 there will be an additional way to present at LCA! Posters are an easy way to interest and educate people about whatever project or subject you want.
See This Link for an explanation on exactly what a Poster is if you have never heard of this style of presentation before. Simple to prepare and easy to present!
I have also caught wind of Haiku Down Under 2010 which is a "Virtual Conference" based around Haiku OS. It is on 22nd of August - see the site for details. The past year has been very exciting for the Haiku community and there is a bunch of other cool stuff currently in the works such as WPA encryption for wireless and Linux Kernel Library porting to allow diverse filesystem compatibility just to name a few.
