: For '''place''', CERN offered to host it again next year. However, it was also suggested that we should try other places to meet new people and make it easier for people from far away, namely west coast USA. However, this also means more work since it's new logistics and other places have different costs. Seems like most contributions are European and flying them all to USA would be more expensive than flying the American developers to Europe. CERN is also quite cheap. Flying to Geneva from Europe is cheap, the rooms are free, and the CERN hotels are very affordable. It was also suggested to change place every two years or to come to CERN every two years with a new place each other year. We decided to have a call for an organizer, with a deadline of 1st of May. If no suitable option appears, then the place will be CERN. Rik will send out the call for organizer. | : For '''place''', CERN offered to host it again next year.
