Hello from a beach resort in Bali, where APRICOT, our Asia-Pacific
equivalent, is having its meeting. It's being very well attended, and
seems like a much nicer location than the usual set of NANOG locations.
I like the idea of having NANOG somewhere interesting.

Hi all,
We have had an organisation come forward with a proposal to host the Jan/Feb
2008 meeting in the Dominican Republic.
It appears that we can expect hotel costs to be quite a bit lower than than
at most recent NANOG meetings (perhaps as low as $100 per night). Flights
might cost a little more than they would for a mainland meeting, but
non-scientific poking at the usual travel web sites doesn't seem to indicate
that they would be ridiculous. The proposal we have accommodates the
networking requirements of NANOG meetings.
We would be interested to hear what people think about this idea. For
example:
How would this fit with your corporate travel policies?
Would you be more or less likely to attend a winter meeting in the
Dominican compared to soemewhere in the US or Canada? Why?
Joe (for the SC)
