One problem I see with LA is that what the people on the committee think is general knowledge is often not general knowledge. They are immersed in something while the rest of us see nothing about it for 6 months at a time. I would suspect you will find that a large percentage of the people on this list do not know that there were no bids[1] for Linux.conf.au 2023. Certainly up until around June I was expecting a LCA to be announced. I just assumed lack of announcement was due to the usual LA secrecy. I mean even after EO was announced it was very much "connect the dots" to tell us this was replacing LCA. [1] Apart for the one mentioned elsewhere on the list that was not accepted. -- Simon Lyall | Very Busy | Web: http://www.simonlyall.com/ "To stay awake all night adds a day to your life" - Stilgar _______________________________________________ linux-aus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linux.org.au/mailman/listinfo/linux-aus To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to linux-aus-unsubscribe-cunTk1MwBs8iFSDQTTA3OBCuuivNXqWP@public.gmane.org
