Far from where?
Canada or South Africa, just to name a few places from which participants 
came...

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.

Alan
