So one of my dreams is to organize an ActivityPub/fediverse conference for East Asia, as I told about it multiple times before…
-
@hongminhee@hollo.social you do it and I'll be there*
@evan@cosocial.ca keeps telling me we (informally as a group — Fediverse developers) need to increase our exposure beyond the eurozone and into Asia-Pacific.
North America is doing well for coverage though.
* that was a non-committal commitment
@julian @hongminhee @evan @laurenshof @reiver I told Minhee last night if we want to do it I would definitly come help organize it in any capacity that would helpful. I know talked about it at out secret cabal last year but I think its really about time!
-
By the way, it should be called FediKaigi if it's held in Japan, shouldn't it?
-
Yeah, this does seem like the first thing to figure out. (Even before the location.)
Was @fossforall an in person event (or online)?
How did the real-time AI translators work?
Were they (physical) devices? Were they something that worked on people's phones or laptops? Or, something else?

@reiver@mastodon.social @evan@cosocial.ca It was an in-person event. They gave us a link that provided real-time translations of what the speaker was saying, so we each pulled it up on our phones to read the translated subtitles.

@evan@cosocial.ca @reiver@mastodon.social Ah, it was Cuckoo.

Were you thinking of doing it in Japan or Korea?

@reiver@mastodon.social Hong Kong?

@reiver@mastodon.social Or it might be in Taiwan? Not sure though!
-
Do you want to have a single name for the conference regardless of the location?
(Most conference keep the same name.)

Rome wasn't built in a day, so for now, it would be great to have a Social Web dev room at the @fossforall@mastodon.social or @COSCUP@floss.social, just like there was at @fosdem@fosstodon.org.
