Oops, looks like a small mistake on my part when I created the page.
Yep, Friday to Sunday is still the plan here.

Yep, 30 peoples seems our current average. Having small rooms for
discussion helps a lot can you make sure we have a couple of
them available?
Yes, I was hoping to get 4 rooms for 5-10 people each, in addition
to a big room.

Thanks a lot for looking into this. It is getting urgent to freeze a
date so that people can start planning travel. March 10th-12th
is a bit
earlier in the cycle so it might be preferable but Gregory Szorc
attendance is less likely :-/. From a recent discussion with Greg it
seemed like it was unclear he could make any of the sprint dates. So
I'll let him jump in and clarify his preference (CCed him to
make sure
he sees that).
It's already getting close, which is a reason to do the later date,
so I'd rather stick with that until we have a more important reason
to change. I personally don't care which date it is, but especially
for all those who have to book flights, I imagine a later date is
better.
My attendance information in the wiki is accurate. The later the better
for me.
Given that everyone is available on March 10 and March 17 weekends and
given that more time to prepare travel can't hurt, I think we should go
with one of those weekends.
As there is a higher odd to have you on the 17th, I would says we should
stick to the 17th (the month of review between that sprint and the
freeze will be "fun").
Let us aims are putting a final stamp one sprint date by Tuesday
January
10th. What do you think?
Sure, I think that's enough time to wait. I'd even be tempted to say
the if someone has already booked a flight ticket, then that's
reason enough to say to anyone else who has not yet signed up and
for whom the date does not work, that "sorry, X has already booked a
flight, it's too late to change". But yes, let's say January 10,
mostly so those who need to book flights know that we're not
changing the date, so they can book their flights on Jan 11.
My main concern here is to avoid a sudden "Hey picked that date", I tend
to give a 48h heads up to people before freezing decision. Especially
since people are slow to react during the holiday seasons (as the low
number of people registered on the page shown).
As far as I'm concerned, feel free to declare a sprint date final
tomorrow morning with the data you have in hand).
Cheers,
