Picking a name right off the top of the distro I'm using, I'd say Red Hat.
They have a trainer in Canberra and I believe they are getting together a team
to do support contract work.  Of course, I might be misremembering,
misunderstanding, or outright lying here, but I'd recommend getting in touch
with Red Hat as a start point.

What we need is some kind of group that would do Linux support in Canberra.
We could call it 'Care For Linux' or something like that... :-)

Have fun,

Paul
