Next FUDCon is in Oct 2016. Do discuss this when you will meet At Singapore

Don't know why you are raising this point so late. I was not there when
this FAD was proposed but this is definitely very important FAD from Fedora
APAC perspective.
We already had good discussion about this in FUDCon Pune and decided to do
FAD + 1 day event targeted towards local community.

Suggestion was not to run whole FAD with G11N topic. Definitely without
active contributors or chance of getting potential contributors it does not
make sense.
But good if it become one small session to just inform audience what
activities happening in Fedora around G11N. You are one of the active L10N
contributor for Sinhala language, so being local and knowledgeable about
L10N, if interested even you can also cover it.
