Please I'm not trying to take it away from
Indonesia, just think its an
important event that we need to hold for our region and that we need to get
on to it sooner if we are to get funding for an event in 2018
There are a lot of hoops to jump through and the application for funding
process as understood from berlin notification and discussions is that at
least 3 months for funding discussion noting that things slow down over the
december period, 3 months for scholarship and call for papers.
Once we add to that planning, costing those little details we'll need
for the fund application thats putting us well into 2018., We dont want to
conflict with Wikimania there goes june to august, too close means people
cant attend both.
We loose late march early april to Berlin though thats a great
opportunity to get some speakers and advice. we have two windows. left even
starting today late April to early June or August to October
Yes I acknowledge culturally I'm a little more pushy than most I do try
to temper that, sometimes I my english is difficult so please forgive me

Most of the participants at this year's
Wikimania Asia meetup favored
for Indonesia. That's okay, but there's another point about hosting it in
Australia. Australia's visa policy might result in a reduced number of
participation from Asian communities, since that is not as generous as that
of Indonesia. So this need to be kept in mind.

the Berlin meetup where it was put forward and fully support Indonesia
hosting the event... What ever the out we do need to ensure we get
something happening for our communities locally soon as hosting a larger
event in the region apparently is needed now before a wikimania can be
hosted

if Australia also intent to host too then it is best that we plan this as
early as possible as the 1 hour meetup in Berlin and in Wikimania is too
short.
