Hi Kate,

When you look at the list of subscribers, does it look like a fair balance
of Asian countries?
I'm not sure which is the best way to vote for a venue proposal. Voting by
list subscribers is one possibility, I thought, in case it's not totally
imbalanced or too low number of subscribers for example.

Or does anyone have a better idea? I know I asked already ;-)

An alternative might be, that a "committee" discusses and/or votes. For
example this year the people listed on the conference Wiki except those
that are from a country that participates in a bid (this time Indonesia and
Thailand): http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/State_of_the_Map_Asia_2013

So this would then in 2013:

Nama Budhathoki
Taichi FURUHASHI
Satoshi IIDA
Maning Sambale
Daniel Kastl
Eugene Villar (seav)
Daisuke Yoshida
Doongpo Deng
Yuichiro Nishimura

Thoughts?
I'm at the moment in favor of the committee.

Daniel
