Great!
For call for host deadline to submit proposal, checked New year
schedule, Vietnam is in Feb, Cambodia and Thailand seems to be in April.
Taiwan is in mid January, same as China. (members please let us know if
the date has contradict with any big holiday in your country)
I would still suggest end of March for the deadline, what do u think?
Dear all,
Please read the call for host and let's try to finalize it and send it
out after the new year holiday :)
Draft:
Call for invitations to be the host of GNOME.Asia Summit 2010
Dear GNOME friends,
GNOME.Asia Summit is the yearly GNOME Users and Developers Asian
Conference. The first GNOME.Asia Summit was hosted in 2008 in
Beijing, China and then 2009 in Ho-Chi-Minh City, Vietnam. We
would like to continue this tradition and spread GNOME
throughout the whole Asia.
For those of you who would like to host the next GNOME.Asia
Summit in 2010 you are hereby invited to write a formal proposal
to the GNOME.Asia Committee list at asia-summit-list [at]
gnome.org on or before 31st March 2010.
The GNOME.Asia Summit will focus primarily on the GNOME desktop
including both applications and development platform in addition
to larger GNOME-related community in Asia. The Summit aims to
bring together the GNOME community in Asia to provide a forum
for users, developers, foundation leaders, governments and
businesses to discuss a varied range of topics relating to GNOME
and the GNOME community in Asia. Learn more about GNOME.Asia
Summit from our website at http://gnome.asia/
Since 2008, the Summit has successfully established an active
committee to assist the local coordinators, but there is a
definitive need for individuals actively involved and committed
to planning and execution of the Summit. There are challenges to
work through but the process can be very rewarding and a lot of
fun. It's also proven that the Summit has helped a lot in
building local communities for GNOME and FOSS in general.
The following two links are “must read items” for GNOME.Asia
Summit:
How to: http://live.gnome.org/How%20to%20Organize%
20GNOME.Asia%20Summit
Check list: http://live.gnome.org/Check%20list%20for%
20GNOME.Asia%20Summit
You will also find the templates of GNOME.Asia Summit 2008 and
2009 Proposals in the how to. For more details of the GNOME.Asia
Summit 2008 and 2009, please visit http://2008.gnome.asia/en/
and http://2009/gnome.asia/
GNOME.Asia is much like a few trees just planted and we want to
grow a forest in Asia. We are looking for local organizers in
any Asian country with the desire to take on and succeed in the
challenges of organizing an excellent GNOME event. We know that
you will need all the time you can get to prepare a proposal but
we hope we have inspired you to get started.
We hope to hear from you on or before 31st March 2010.
Good luck!
Sincerely,
GNOME.Asia Summit committee
Thanks,
Pockey
