Yeah...the when should be around March/April or so for the "official" 
meeting, but there was talk of a more social thing too (which can happen 
any time) just because we have such a good time together.

I had a vote in for Cape Town too, but nobody liked it. :(
(they have really good, cheap wine - Check out KWV or Kanonkop)

Not shouted down..not at all. Portland was a popular option.

Not really. I think we decided that we had a lot of time to think about 
it and make a decision when everyone was more in touch with what the 
finances would be then.

I'd be inclined to go with Amsterdam, Portland and London (just a little 
order change).
Portland might win out though. Hell, I'd be game for another stab at 
SXSW even if it was just for fun. I had a blast.

The show itself though was a little weak.  Maybe it'll just get better 
every year.
