Re: GNOME.Asia IRC Meeting Notes 20120327

[Haggen So <haggenso gmail com>]

Hi All,

There is no more comment on Call for Sponsors and Call for Papers and
they should be confirmed. In the IRC communication (not this week),
Brian said that there was no need to confirm the venue before the two
documents can be confirmed.

CityU replied favorably in sponsoring 2 days for the venue. We just
need to do the paperwork. We are also negotiating for 1 day more on
pre-training event.

Regards,

Haggen
