I've been saying for a while that we need something like FediCon in East Asia. A dedicated conference is still a stretch, but I've been thinking about a smaller step:

@COSCUP 2026 (Taipei, Aug 8–9) is accepting proposals for community tracks. It might be worth trying to open a Social Web track there—something in the spirit of the Social Web devroom at FOSDEM.

Nothing is decided yet, but if you're working on #ActivityPub, the #fediverse, or anything in the social web space and might be interested in speaking (or co-organizing), I'd love to hear from you.

Our Fediverse & Social Web track has been accepted for @COSCUP 2026 (Taipei, Aug 8–9)! We'll have a full day—six hours—to fill with talks on the #fediverse, #ActivityPub, and the open social web.

The CFP for speakers isn't open yet, but we'll announce it here when it is. Stay tuned!

@hongminhee @COSCUP Congrats, this is very exciting!!
@dansup Thanks! Do you want to come to Taipei this summer? 🤣
@hongminhee As much as I'd love to, I don't have a passport yet and that is quite a long flight for someone who has never flown before 😅
@dansup Haha, that's fine. Would you attend to FediCon this year? We could hang out there!
@hongminhee Yes, I am planning on attending again this year, it was so much fun last summer and sounds great, can't wait to meet you!!

Huge huge news. I love that we are seeing more events in the Asia-Pacific region.

I don't know if I can commit that date yet. Not sure I can get away from my family for both this and FediCon! 

@julian send your family to one and you go to the other!
