=== July 2014 ===


eLiveLearn is a (very) long term pet project of mine!  eLiveLearn is FOSS (php/linux/apache) based system designed to be a complete on  learning environment.  Unlike many other online learning systems (Learning Management Systems) such as Moodle, Whiteboard etc which are  content management systems (CMS) with added learning support features, eLiveLearn was design designed from start to fully support the complete Learning-Assessment-Reporting process in a fully integrated system.  Educators can create online lessons and assessment tasks, Students can step through online lessons and carry out assessement tasks.  Educators can then mark and provide feedback on students work and generate live reports.
'''LUV-Main''' July 01
* Lev Lafayette, Software and Innovation Patents
* Ewan Barr, Linux and the Square Kilometre Array


In this talk, I will look at some design features of eLiveLearn and run through a very simple usage scenario (hands-on).  I will also talk about work that still needs to be done to make it a fully functional ready to use system and some problems with the system.  Audience comment and feedback will be most appreciated.

This talk may likely be of interest to Educators at secondary and tertiary level.

Martin Paulo is a software developer with VeRSI (the Victorian
'''LUV-Main''' September 02
eResearch Strategic Initiative). Way back when Martin started out
writing assembly for embedded systems. From there, via grid
programming, he made the move to more conventional software
development, as a Java developer in the financial services arena. At
VeRSI Martin has worked on and with the NeCTAR (National eResearch
Collaboration Tools and Resources) research cloud: possibly the
largest and most complex OpenStack deployment in Australia.

OpenStack is open source software that provides a cloud computing

platform. From its early origins as a small Nasa project, OpenStack is
rapidly gaining broad industry acceptance. Its ongoing development is
guided by the OpenStack Foundation, a foundation backed by many key
technology companies. In this talk Martin will provide an introduction
to the concepts underlying OpenStack, and show how you can get going
with your own personal OpenStack deployment.

* Paul Foxworthy : Auprefs - My quest to rescue Australian democracy with 200 lines of Javascript
"Above the line" voting means your favourite political party can choose where preferences will be distributed, and you may not know (or like) their decisions. auprefs is an open source web application to visualise preference distribution in Australian elections, to better inform voters where their vote might go. Paul will talk about why he did it, and how it is implemented, including force-directed graphs and the amazing d3 Javascript graphing library.
Paul Foxworthy is an open source developer whose day job is working on Australianising and customising the Apache OFBiz ERP system. He is a committer to the OFBiz project and also currently serves as a director of Open Source Industry Australia. He is very pleased to have finally done something just possibly cool enough to give a LUV talk.
