Hi all, Just a quick follow-up on the seminars last weekend - they were great, especially with our two new supporters - UTS and Jolt Cola.
The new room was great. As the announcement last week mentioned, we're now in the UTS tower building, in the same room that SLUG has their meetings in - it's got a projector, more seating, and also has network access. The obvious use for this is seminars that require some sort of a live demo. In the past we've just not been able to organise this. A big thanks to Dave for organising this. The second big surprise of the day was coming into the room to find two chilled slabs of Jolt Cola waiting for an audience of techies exhausted from a big Friday night but eager to hear the seminars. Whether it was the great seminar material or the Jolt, there wasn't anyone in the audience looking even remotely like dozing off by 4pm. *grin* A big thanks to Jess for organising this, and a big thanks to Jolt Cola for supporting the seminars with free drinks! The next seminars will be in January, 2002, with Paintball taking the place of the seminars in December. At this stage, we're lining up a couple of things - firstly, a talk on Australian Standard 4444, which covers the topic of Information Security Management, secondly, if they're willing, a talk from the (Canberra-based) developers of SNARE, a Linux-based LKM that provides a form of host intrusion detection and a C2-style auditing/event logging capabilities. And last but not least, we're trying to get Rendrag up from Canberra to give a packet radio demonstration. Mindsnare now has the MiniDisc and will be encoding and putting the audio material from October and November online as Uni exams permit. One of us will announce on 2600-list when they go online.
