Have you had a chance to talk at SotM?
My impression so far was, that Alex pretty much started already organizing
an SotM in Bogor, whether it will be a local event or SotM Asia.
I'm not sure though if Kate is involved in the Bogor "activities".

Share about SotM Asia in Birmingham is a good idea, though it's OK in my
opinion if we say that it has not been 100% decided ... I wished though we
could say it has been decided.
