Thanks a lot Nicolas
Here's one possibility I can think of:
In 2009 I've been in touch with various people living in Vietnam and
interested in working on improving the availability and quality of open
fonts for Vietnamese. Last I heard, the plan was to review and
contribute Vietnamese support to existing open font families but
possibly also to design/commission/release a new open font family made
from scratch and then get the resulting software distributed, included
in the various libre projects throughout Vietnam (liveCDs for example,
office suite bundles, etc) and promoted instead of restricted fonts.
They are based in Hanoi, Vietnam and affiliated to Hanoilug and CNF:

Seems to fit the criteria. What do you think?
Yes -- perfect ;-) And above all, I think it would be great to hear more
about their work.
I will ping them about this possibility to come to LGM.
Hoping they'd be interested in making the journey? I think they need a
visum for Belgium btw:

Maybe people working with ANLoc could also benefit from the opportunity:

Yes, I contacted Denis Jacquerye on this but might contact ANloc
directly too. Do you know who else I could contact?
Thanks for all the organisation efforts.
Our pleasure :-)
