Is the Middle East part of EMEA or APAC?
by Jonathan Dieter 18 May '11

18 May '11

I'm one of the Fedora Lebanon ambassadors, and today I received an email from someone in the APAC region talking about working on FUDcon APAC. While I appreciate the invitation to get involved, I was a bit confused at the assumption that Lebanon is part of the APAC region. As far as I understand it, the ME in EMEA stands for Middle East, and Lebanon and the surrounding countries should be considered part of EMEA. However, http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/MembershipService/Verification has Lebanon listed under APAC, and, while http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/APAC/Countries doesn't have Lebanon, it does have some of our neighboring countries listed. So, which region should we consider ourselves part of? Jonathan
