[Foundation-l] "Chinese Wikimania 2006 to be held in Hong Kong"

[THD]

Haha....ROC you just praised me too much. I can't express myself as clear as
you do, and I don't think my english skill is good. No matter what, I think
we need more communication with the Foundation and here. I hope it's not too
hard for people here to understand what I said.
