See: > > http://www.ietf.org/meeting/upcoming.html > >Bob Fair enough - but I read Marshal's comment more as we're about to start planning meetings based on 1/1/1 as opposed to being a comment that "we've already set the dates why didn't you speak up before"... probably a mis-read on my part so let me apologize for that. I will note that for any given person asking if a date 4-7 years out is "bad" is probably going to get pretty much a "huh? why are you asking me now?" and the silence you encountered. In this case, silence isn't so much consent as "I have no useful data to convey". But given the comments on the list, its unclear that we can/should separate the discussion of dates from the discussion of locations - as painful as that may be. I don't know that the IAOC should consider the 2014-2017 dates firm quite yet.
