Miniconfs

What are Miniconfs?

The first day of linux.conf.au is made up of dedicated day-long streams focussing on single topics. They are organised and run by volunteers and are a great way to kick the conference off.

First introduced at linux.conf.au 2002, they are now a traditional element of the conference. They were originally intended as an incubator – both of future conferences and speakers.
