I believe it was a matter of keeping the travel cost estimate simple - note that the wmf (staff, board, fdc, affcom) and future chapters, thorgs and possibly user groups were also not counted.
Amical should definitely be invited again, and indeed there is a member from Amical participating in the decisionmaking on location. Hope that answers the question - it is important to clarify that that question on the bid is not meant to influence who is invited, it is merely used to get a _sense_ of the travel costs, not their exact amount.
