65. The Australian History Of Tux LG #59 The australian history of Tux. By Chris Jones During the 1940s and 50s in Australia there was a literary magazine called, of all things, http://linuxgazette.net/issue59/jones.html

"Linux Gazette... making Linux just a little more fun! The Australian History of Tux By Chris Jones 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.

Technology HIGHER EDUCATION back PRINT-FRIENDLY VERSION EMAIL THIS STORY History will vanish into the ether Toss Gascoigne May 11, 2005 TRACKING down government reports is a growing problem for researchers in Australia. Originally published on the web, many reports have become unavailable or difficult to find. 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.
