I imagine he is, but since you seem to be more technically oriented, I'd 
suggest the likes of PLUG, SLPWA and SAGE-AU(-WA) first. ACS seems to 
have a political, bureaucratic and businessy image - meaning not a 
popular one with techies (: (By golly did I just oversimplify the 
distinction.)
There's AUUG too, but they seem to be in wind-down mode as an 
organisation. Perhaps they'd be helpful.

Ciao,
Greg.
