Dear Perth LUG members,

Please forward this invitation to anyone you feel would be interested.

17th Annual System Administrators' Conference (SAGE-AU 2009)
============================================================
The System Administrators' Guild of Australia
Gold Coast, 10-14th August 2009

SAGE-AU was formed to advance the profession of System Administration
by raising awareness of the need for System Administrators, and
educating System Administrators in technical as well as professional
issues. Our yearly conference provides a forum for System
Administrators of all platforms and levels of experience to gather
together and share their experiences. Further it provides an excellent
opportunity to meet and network with acknowledged experts in the
field.

SAGE-AU 2009 will be held in the Gold Coast from the 10th-14th August.
The theme this year is "Internet Content Filtering," and talks or
tutorials covering this or related fields are particularly welcomed.

Training Program: 10th - 12th August
------------------------------------

SAGE-AU 2009 will include three days of training sessions of both 3
hours and 6 hours duration. Previous years have included tutorials on
topics such as:

     * Management practices for System Administrators
     * Disaster recovery and high availability
     * Computer and network security
     * High performance
     * Networking
     * Cross platform interoperability

For more details and to submit your proposal(s), visit our Call for
Technical Presentations.  http://www.sage-au.org.au//x/cgAG

Technical Program: 14th - 15th August
-------------------------------------

Due to the huge success of last year's change in format, this year
again there will be two parallel streams of talks running. If your job
includes looking after systems, networks, or machines for which you
are not the sole-user, we'd love to hear you speak!

Previous years have included talks on topics such as:

     * Selling yourself/your team
     * Successful negotiation
     * Disasters recovered
     * Security issues
     * Tools, tricks and tips
     * Standards

Technical Presentations.  http://www.sage-au.org.au//x/cgAG

If you have any questions or require assistance with your submission,
please don't hesitate to ask!
