Is there a link to the concerns/notes expressed?
None off-hand, I remember some of us suggesting that answers to the concerns be put up on the bid page, but that doesn't seem to have happened. In brief I believe cash management and audience were the biggest concern, cash management because for the only major event we had (FAD at PP last year), Tuan and I had to carry wads of cash ($500 each) because it's not possible to receive Paypal payments in Cambodia.
Also, 100 participants seem a very low number for an event - is there a specific basis for the calculation?
This was one of the questions about the target audience. It wasn't completely clear what the target audience was, but I believe the focus was on getting passersby in the main event and flying in contributors who were interested in doing outreach at the event.
