10:45:31 <dramsey> Cool.
10:45:32 <tuanta> #topic FUDcon APAC Committee
10:45:52 <tuanta> any more ideas on this?
10:46:03 <dramsey> https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/MalaysianTeam/FUDConAPACDraft
10:46:17 <dramsey> No information from me.
10:46:26 <tuanta> thanks, dramsey
10:46:33 <tuanta> #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/MalaysianTeam/FUDConAPACDraft
10:46:58 <tuanta> just old ideas:
10:47:22 <tuanta> we should organize some FADs first, it's easier
10:47:27 <dramsey> +1
10:47:32 <Suresht> +1
10:47:34 <tuanta> I will have it in Vietnam soon
10:47:56 <tuanta> also, I have a new idea
10:48:30 <tuanta> why don't we have someone in APAC to attend FUDCon(s) to learn more
10:48:40 <dramsey> +1 great idea!
10:48:57 <tuanta> FUDCon in EMEA, NA, etc.
10:49:17 <Suresht> +1 tuanta good one
10:50:04 <tuanta> I got this idea from EMEA Ambassadors to support me to attend FUDCon in Milan
10:50:21 <tuanta> it's also good to have all your supports
10:50:38 <Suresht> my vote for you tuanta
10:50:43 <dramsey> +1
10:51:16 <tuanta> we should give all of us opportunities to go faraway to learn more
10:51:41 <tuanta> since FUDCon in APAC won't be happened soon
10:51:46 <Suresht> tuanta: lets inform to FamSco!
10:52:20 <dramsey> A #idea and/or #info ?
10:52:21 <Suresht> tuanta: we have to wait one more year.
10:52:39 <tuanta> #idea we should give opportunities to Ambassadors in APAC to go faraway (EMEA, NA...) to learn more
10:53:46 <tuanta> #undo

10:54:36 <dramsey> +1
10:54:47 <Suresht> + tuanta
10:55:05 <tuanta> any ideas else?
10:55:11 <tuanta> should we move on?
10:55:12 <dramsey> Nothing here.
