Just out of curiosity, how is the location of FOSS4G determined?
Roger, OSGeo has a "Conference Committee" that issues an RFP annually requesting proposals from folks interested in hosting the conference. The committee selects one proposal from the responses based on a variety of objective and subjective criteria. This selection is recommended to the OSGeo board for final approval. For 2009 there was only one proposal - for Australia. In 2008 and 2010 there were roughly four proposals. http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Conference_Committee I am a member of the committee, and Jeff McKenna is the chair.
