Something else to consider is the date. Quite a few of us work in
academia, and the fall term has recently been advanced, at least at many
European universities, to just about when the ConTeXt meetings are being
held.
Of course you can't please everybody -- just a suggestion.
Cheers, Jörg

In organizing an international meeting, it is always a delicate balance in
choosing a site that is reasonably accessible, reasonably affordable,
reasonably attractive and available at a reasonable date. A meeting also needs
to be organized which implies quite a lot of (volonteer) work from a small
group of people. This means that the locale also depends on the availablity of
such volonteers.
It is also sane that the meeting be held in different regions, and,
unfortunately, not all meetings will be practical (or possible) for everyone.
We need to work together to find ways to make the meetings work for a maximum
number of participants in the best way possible.
