Well, to be clear : I thought Waerth's proposal, and the discussion of
other continents, was bold and great.  There was no offense meant; Ray
caught it in precisely the spirit intended.  As a member of the
community, and not as a "Wikimania organiser", I would love to see
more event planning in Thailand, and in Asia and Africa in general,
and think that Ec and Walter talking about this well in advance was
pretty neat.

The discussion of whether to rotate Wikimanias across continents has
been proposed before; and it was noted then too that we would run out
of continents just before the next Mayan World Age...

Dariusz : If you do something in Poland, I'll have to finish learning
Polish by then ;-)
