16th Annual System Administrators' Conference (SAGE-AU 2008)

The System Administrators' Guild of Australia

Adelaide, 11-15th August 2008

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 2008 will be held in Adelaide from the 11th-15th August.

Tutorial Program: 11th - 13th August

SAGE-AU 2008 will include three days of tutorials of both 3 hours and 6
hours duration. Previous years have included tutorials on topics such as:

  * Automating Windows Vista

  * Change Management

  * Issues in Unix Infrastructure Design

  * Management-101

For more details and to submit your proposal(s), visit our [1]Call for
Technical Presentations

Technical Program: 14th - 15th August

For the first year, two parallel streams will be 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:

  * Security

  * Wireless Networks

  * System Administration Ethics

  * Virtualisation

  * Standards (and Compliance)

The [0]UKUUG Spring 2008 Conference will be held at the Birmingham
Conservatoire ([1]Birmingham, [2]UK) from 31st March to 2nd April 2008.
Monday features 3 full day tutorials, with Tuesday and Wednesday taken up
by shorter technical presentations. You can see the current schedule
[3]here.

Birmingham Perl Mongers are helping to coordinate the event, with several
Perl Mongers from around the UK offering to present talks. Dave Cross
will be holding a one-day Perl tutorial of his Teach-In session, with
Matt S Trout, Tom Hukins, Mike Whitaker, Daniel Giribet, Barnabas Aspray,
Mark Gledhill, Robin Doran, Brian McCauley, Jon Allen and me presenting
technical talks discussing Perl.

The event is a UKUUG event and there are discounted rates for UKUUG
members. You can attend just a tutorial, just the technical talk days or
the whole 3 days. See [4]Payment Details for all the options and prices.
For those travelling from further afield who would like to know of some
local hotels, the [5]Accommodation page lists several nearby hotels. The
[6]conference venue is situated at the west end of New Street and is
within 5-10 minutes walk of several hotels, including all those available
during YAPC::Europe in 2006. Both GUADEC and PyConUK were held there in
2007, and proved a very suitable venue.

The Early Bird rates for the event are due to end on March 10th, so if
you're thinking of coming along, please book soon to take advantage of
the reduced rates.

This Week on perl5-porters - 17-23 February 2008
================================================

Nicholas: So, it seems that constant folding runs in ``compile time'',
which scares me somewhat. Surely it should be running in run time?

Rafael: The whole point of compile time optimisation is that it runs at
compile time, isn't it?

Nicholas: Runs at compile time, but (I assume should) run under run time
rules. There appear to be special exceptions scattered throughout the
code that certain things aren't fatal if compilation is in progress.

(debating the elegant simplicity of the Perl 5 internals).
