New name for linux.conf.au in 2007

This year, linux.conf.au will be renamed. After lengthy debate on the Linux Australia mailing list, the Seven team has decided that the only way to make any progress on the issue without the community being crippled by consensus gridlock is to simply make a decision and move on. Ask for forgiveness, not permission, as they say.

Thus, as of the opening of the conference on January 15th, linux.conf.au will henceforth be known as linux.con f.au.

linux.con f.au

    So how is that space between the n and the f pronounced? Maybe a glottal stop or a click?

    Actually, it sort of sounds Chinese…

    Could we ask Pia what the correct tones to use would be?
