[fedora-my] Fwd: APAC Fudcon Bids

Mon Feb 27 10:55:26 UTC 2012

Next year, the scale of FUDCON commitment is larger than anything we have
done before.

Plus just because we manage to leave things so far to the very last minute
before having a big event doesn't mean that we can still pull this off with
FUDCON.

This is fucking FUDCON not some small time
ho-haah-get-together-and-talk-shit event.
