- need http://asia.foss4g.org to point to http://www.foss4g-asia.org/
- but actually, similar to ticket#1421, we need http://asia.foss4g.org
to appear in the browser (a "reverse proxy" so it seems like the site is
hosted on foss4g.org)
- server admin is @daisuke (CC'd), so he can answer questions if you need
more info

I think this requires some changes of DNS (and might be reverse proxy) in
foss4g.org side, not foss4g-asia.org side.

Comment(by martin):
I'd say having the site respond to "asia.foss4g.org" would be preferred
over a reverse proxy setup.

Comment(by jmckenna):
I don't mean to be pushy, but I wonder if we can enable this soon.
(Venka, who donated foss4.org, has asked me to do this...and his event is
only two weeks away now) Do we need any more information to enable
asia.foss4g.org for Venka? Thanks.

Comment(by wildintellect):
Assuming www.foss4g-asia.org lives at 202.181.97.21
Then we will make the DNS record. After that it's up to the people
managing the server to put in the appropriate vhost configuration so that
machine responds to the asia.foss4g.org name.
Sound Good? If so the DNS edit takes 5 minutes, and then can take several
hours to propagate correctly. Ideally the server should already be
configured to listen for requests on that name before we start.

Comment(by martin):
Actually I was expecting some sort of feedback from the respective site
maintainers.
According to my test they haven't set up a virtual host - and somehow I
don't feel like configuring reverse proxies for people who don't even mind
to respond.[[BR]]
Finally .... well, I'd be fine with setting up an A record on
202.181.97.21 and let them figure out by themselves

@alex yup sounds good. thanks man.
@martin as I noted earlier to you in this ticket, @daisuke has already
spoken in this ticket and we were waiting for an update from you. This is
really frustrating, I mean why didn't you say that you needed a comment
from @daisuke a week ago?
I really feel that such a request, that will happen more and more often as
we add more regional events, needs a more streamlined process.

Comment(by daisuke):
Sorry, I did not realize the foss4g-asia.org server needs a change in
VirtualHost up to today.
I have asked the hosting company about the VirtualHost change because it
seems it cannot change the setting flexibly in the Web interface that the
company provides. I will let you know the result when I get the reply from
the company.

I think VirtualHost setting in foss4g-asia.org server is now ready for
accepting asia.foss4g.org.
