It was difficult to get hold of the king, but once I did (serendipitously - he just "happened" to be at a workshop at the same time as one of the many, many persons I contacted to ask how to find him got my email on her laptop!) he was eager to receive the book. He insisted that the ceremony take place on Putfontein farm, at the site of the original mission station. The farm was returned to the Batloung under the land restitution act. It is currently rather desolate, but plans are afoot to make it bloom again.
