I believe all the answer from Emily is very clear already. Emily is a
very kind and friendly person who I meet face to face during Gnome.Asia
Summit 2009 in Vietnam. Please do not hide your questions for making
decision to have a proposal to invite Gnome.Asia or not. Please ask and
I belive Emily would love to answer our questions.

Best regards,
