Re: [Ambassadors] FUDCon APAC: Emergency meeting

[Uditha Bandara Wijerathna]

Hello,

Thanks Ankur for the nice email. This will be the biggest milestone of our
decisions. Unfortunately I won't be able to make it tomorrow. Because I'm
attending to the Apache BarCamp Colombo[1]. But I'll try to login  to IRC
from my mobile. Also I'll update the wiki page [2] with my recommendation.

Have a nice weekend
Thanks!
