http://linuxgazette.net/issue59/jones.html

Extractions: "Linux Gazette... making Linux just a little more fun! Gday from the land of Oz, If anyone out there is wondering about the growing popularity of Linux and its adoption by Australian writers as a writers true operating system, perhaps the following may help explain. On the reason for choosing Tuxthe penguin mascot for LinuxLinus Tolvalds, the first of thousands who wrote the Linux computer operating system on the world wide web, had this to say: When I was in Canberra a few years ago we went to the local zoo ... There they had a ferocious penguin that bit me... OK now, when Linus says he was bitten by an angry penguin in Canberra and that is a good reason for the Tux mascot which today spells Linux, there maybe more to the story. During the 1940s and 50s in Australia there was a literary magazine called, of all things, The Angry Penguins . This magazine was an avant-garde modernist poetry magazine edited by Max Harris and had modernist painters and writers grouped around it whose names are now legend in Australian art. But at that time they were just considered weird and way out. You know, the stereotype of mad deluded poets and artists starving and living in sub-standard housing. Anyway, this literary magazine started to get a bit too much of a following. A couple of boring farts, both academic poets, got a bit hot under the collar about this and got together to write and submit a hoax modernist poem under the false name of Ern Malley. As it worked out, these farts are now better known for this hoax and the false name Ern Malley, then their own true names and works.

Site search Australia is home to the world's oldest continuing cultural traditions. Sites showing human occupation have been dated back to 40,000 years. Recent work in north-west Australia identified rock art that may be 175,000 years old. Indigenous Australians have a mystic tradition that explains their close relationship to the land and tells of a dreamtime rich in stories of creation. On 26 January 1788, European settlers reached Port Jackson and established a settlement in what is now Sydney. Australia's population is now more than 19 million. Asia figures prominently in Australia's top 10 source countries for family migrants. Australia is a democracy and debate is a component of the Australian political process. Freedom of speech is a cornerstone of any democracy and Australians have no hesitation in expressing their views on politics and controversial issues. All Australians from the age of 18 are required to vote in local, state and federal elections.

Extractions: Government departments are increasingly using the web as their primary means of publication. It's quicker and easier and gives much better access in our wired world. And they save money by printing fewer hard copies. But problems arise when reports are removed from the web or relocated to a new website. This may be as time moves on and webmasters, under pressure to run a tidy site, decide to cut some of the older material. Or it may be when departments merge or split, and the material is moved to a new address but without leaving a trace behind so it can be tracked. There are no national protocols for how web-based material should be selected and preserved and made available in a systematic way in Australia today. This is a cause of concern to researchers.
