It is good to see that there will be a regional FOSS4G Asia happening in 
December.

I don't see this as being in competition to our FOSS4G Oceania as they 
will be drawing from a different audience.

If anything, I see it as a positive sign that Open Source Geospatial is 
thriving around the world.
