I didn't write the biography. It is from the announcement of the talk, 
on 28 February, in Canberra:

No need to substitute Malcolm Turnbull MP, he is opening the "Discover 
IT" conference, 21 March, in Canberra:

You would need to ask the ACS Branch Executive Committee about their 
ideology. But my experience, as an ordinary member, has been that people 
from different political parties speak at ACS events, as do government 
officials, industry and academia.

An excellent idea. I look forward to attending such an event, if you can 
get political opponents to agree to it.
