Certainly organizing it where someone is local simplifies the logistics, thanks for volunteering. > Bonus: last I heard, it's a lot easier to get into Germany than into the US > part of North America. :) Most certainly true for an EU citizen such as yourself, and several other countries. My last trip through German customs was...bearable--I'd be more than willing to do it again to maximize participation, and Munich looks like a nice place. The other question is one of expense--how many people would we have to ship that direction vs. this.
