The best point-of-time for such a discussion is immediately after EP is over; then all aspects of the conference can be discussed while people have the conference fresh in mind, people may have better opinions on the conference venue, and if the organizers feel the need to spend energy defending their decisions, at least it won't distract them from organizing the event. A mailing list is a good tool for keeping heated arguments, it may have an entertainment value, but doesn't serve much purpose except that. Mailing lists are seldom a good tool for constructive discussions. When the participants have good points and good ideas that everyone can agree on ... well, it's nothing to discuss, so the good ideas doesn't get any bandwidth and are soon forgotten, while the small details where people disagree tends to steal a lot of bandwidth. I think it's a much better idea to summarize "proposals for improving EP" on a wiki page. _______________________________________________ EuroPython 2014 Berlin, 21th27th July EuroPython mailing list EuroPython@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/europython
