@solidjeff thank you! Just to confirm, they have this rule of deducting 2 years out of 10 years, so from September 2005 - September 2013, does it follow that all work experience are still skilled and relevant after May 2005 or will it be after September 2005?

Please go through the ACS guidelines about the deduction ng experience nyo when claiming points. This is very important para hindi kayo mag-over claim ng points when you lodge your EOI. Over claiming points can result to visa rejection.
You can read this guide. http://www.acs.org.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0020/7319/Skills-Assessment-Guidelines-for-Applicants.pdf
