[Sotm-asia] Where will it be?

Sat Sep 7 01:14:53 UTC 2013

Hi Alex and all:

I agree with Kate's opinion.
Already, we have no time.
And also, we should share about SotM Asia information at the SotM
Birmingham.

I propose...

 1st SotM Asia in Thailand is ealistic choice.
 2nd SotM Asia in Indonesia is better.

After conference,
Maybe, Taiwan, Phillipin and other good communities will propose for venue.

What do you think? Daniel, Dongpo, Maning and all.

Regards,

from Taichi at the SotM Birmingham
