Hi Matthew et all, You may be right! :) That's why I have tried to hunt you many times to remind you take a look at APAC FUDCon 2015 bids and make the final decision (after regional community and FAmSCo did review them) That's also the same reason why I tried to push Robyn for FUDCon APAC 2014 although, in fact, it was approved less than 3 months before start date. That may be one of the reasons why FUDCon APAC 2013 could not happen (no one had been willing to step up to push all others for it) > This is a great example of one of the reasons we created the Council in > the first place, and I'd like to suggest that we update this page to > replace FPL with the Council, and specifically make this a > responsibility of the Community Action and Impact Coordinator. So, you are absolutely right.

He/she/they could be you (as now), or CAIC or Council, but I personally prefer that could be a team to avoid the single of failure situation. Also, how about the upcoming FOSCO? Can they play a role here?
