Welcome to AussieChix!

AussieChix is the Australian regional chapter of LinuxChix, for women living in Australia, aimed at providing ways for women living in Australia to meet each other, talk about, and get involved in Linux, Free Software and related things.

AussieChix welcomes women interested in Linux or Free Software at any level of experience. If you haven't yet started using Linux, you might also be interested in some information about what it is and where to get it.

Men are also welcome to join AussieChix, as long as they understand that its purpose is "supporting women in Linux".

Please see Joining AussieChix for information about joining AussieChix and coming along to our events.

Brisbane: Girl Geek Dinner #11

10 Aug 2010 19:00
Australia/Brisbane

This dinner is a call out for those that see value in these dinners. If you want them to continue we need your help us make them better. If nobody is interested in helping us plan and improve the dinners we feel it would be better to shut them down as they take up time that we could devote to other things.

So we’re going back to where it all started at the Caravanserai Restaurant.

...

Date: Tuesday 10th August

Time: 7:00pm

Where: Caravanserai Turkish Restaurant, West End

For more information, see the GGD Brisbane blog.

Linux Australia Survey: win a ticket to linux.conf.au 2011!

The Linux Australia Council launched a Membership Survey on 11 May, 2010. Linux Australia is the peak body for Linux User Groups (LUGs) around Australia, and as such represents approximately 5000 Australian Linux users and developers. Linux Australia supports open source and open standards widely through a number of schemes and community activities such as the grants programme and Software Freedom Day.

Everyone is encouraged to complete the survey, even if you are not a Linux Australia member or even a regular Linux user: the survey is open to anyone who's interested in Open Source in Australia, and aims to discover reasons why people are not members among other things.
