 TL> Not down here, we still have 2 Linux groups in our state here. Melbourne
 TL> Linux Users Group and Linux Users Victoria.

I'm guessing those kind of groups are likely available in larger centers.

 TL> Also, there is Melbourne Wireless (a hobbyist group build a metro wide
 TL> wifi network), and the oldest of them all - APANA - the Australian Public
 TL> Access Network Association, a hobbyist networking group. Once, a cheap
 TL> source of Internet access, now a useful means to obtain IP tunnels and
 TL> experiment with networking infrastructure.

That might be neat.

 TL> As for ham radio clubs, they go in cycles, but there are several

 TL> cycling (the "Pedal Radio Group"), and getting involved in community
 TL> events, providing communications, their latest work being comms for a
 TL> local marathon carnival. I didn't help, only because I was competing in a
 TL> relay event that was part of the day! :)

As for Hams, most here are likely 60 and over.  We used to do comms, and field
day and all that stuff.  But, we didnt need IPV6 for th at <G>
