It just hit me, if Boston Summit is usually around October and there's the LA tour planned for October, why not merge both ideas? We can have BS (ok, never use that acronym) in -say- Lima, and then some of the hackers can take a plane to -say- Santiago, some guys from Europe could also come and be in the Summit instead of just watching via IRC. Of course this involves having the usual attendees pay an extra fee for the trip, it's still something reasonable to pay under 1000 usd to get a weekend in South America. Also there's a language barrier, but I wouldn't consider it an actual problem, given that people in the Summit is gonna interact mainly between them.
