You are invited to the inaugural 2600 Australia Seminar Series, to be held in Sydney on Saturday, 7th April (the Saturday after the 2600 meeting). Sessions begin at 1pm and run till approximately 5pm. Entry is $10, payable at the door. Speakers this month include: ---------------------------- * Nik Cubrilovic (black-hand) : Web Application Security" * Kieran Sweet (kayjay) : HP-9000 and HP-UX architecture overview" * Shaun : "Buffer overflows from the ground up" Also: Hands-on session after the seminars with Mac OS X (10.0). Location: --------- University of Technology "Tower" Building (near Central Station) Level 11, Room 1.11.17 Open from midday onwards, seminars begin @ 1pm. $10 entry fee (covers room fee, future seminars (see below)) Additional Notes: ----------------- * Once the seminars have finished, you're invited to join us for a drink and later on, some dinner in the city. * Although the number of people that attend strongly dictates whether we can cover our costs for the room, we have a number of interstate and local speakers planned for future months, so a strong showing is critical at this one. Guest speakers from Melbourne, Canberra and Brisbane will be flown in on Impulse Airlines, billeted out on the Friday night after the Sydney 2600 meeting and shouted drinks and dinner after the seminars. In short, we don't think $10 is an unreasonable charge if this is what we can organise for the May and June sessions (they're already pretty much planned). Capacity for the room we have booked at the present time is 60 people. Larger rooms go up to 95 people but cost quite a bit more. * We intend on recording the sessions and making them available in the "Multimedia" section of the Wiretapped website (which covers a number of other similar things already). * Broadly, the seminars will always be in three parts: an introductory session, an intermediate session (may include hardware pull-apart, demonstration) and an advanced session.

Please feel free to forward this invitation to friends, colleagues that may be interested in these or future 2600 Australia Seminar Series events. --- -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://slug.org.au/lists/listinfo/slug
