Huh - I can sure understand that! Actually, we are attempting to plan this for February in Europe. Hopefully, that *might* work out better.

My understanding is that (at least recently) ICANN has been loathe to have meetings in the US because it's very hard for people to get visas to attend. There may be another upcoming venue that is easier (and possibly cheaper.) Can anyone confirm this or suggest a way to find out?
