I think we have decided on Montreal since we have a volunteeer.  You will
need to do a venue that will support 35-50 people.

If we do bids, I might be able to talk the Chicago GNOME community into
applying for a future year. We are in the middle of the US, and have a
major international airport, so it might be a nice option.

Sure! I'll look into this. Has GNOME decided on Montreal? If so, maybe
someone can get me up to speed on some details, such as capacity and
specific dates. I'm happy to help with this, but I'd rather not be the
sole organizer.

Were it up to me, that would be my recommendation.

It's not that we don't like Portland. Hell, if Portlandia is any
indication, Portland might be the best city EVER. :) Even the
inconvenience of people having to take an extra and/or longer flight,
while not great, is not a show-stopper. To me the show-stopper is
unbudgeted travel expenses with less than a year's notice.

It is my understanding that quite a few usual "Boston Summit" attendees
are within reasonable driving distance of Boston. And Montreal, while a
longer drive, is not undoable for this crowd. But at least in the case
of my company, the 2013 travel budget was set at the end of 2012. And at
the end of 2012, we had no indication that I would have to fly
cross-country from Southern New Hampshire to "Boston." ;) ;)

Whether or not we want to rotate "Boston" Summit around the country is
something for the Foundation membership to decide. If they decide that,
great. But let's then ensure we have the location selected in time for
companies and the Foundation to include it in their travel budgets.

I don't know if I'll be in Montreal around then, but just a suggestion, if
you do organize it in Montreal, it would be great to have it at Concordia,
McGill, or at UQAM, the Universite de Montreal location is so... far from
everything ;-)

Also, I think there are decently priced hotels on Rene-Levesque west,
which is nice and close to Concordia, and also close to the pubs...

AFAIU, the idea of doing it in different city is because of last
incident in Boston.  It is not for the sake of moving it.

It is relevant.  Without venue or people organizing the event there is
no event.

But in any case, that is still one extra flight on the trip.

Again, although several people already mentioned it. One of the main
reasons to have a Boston Summit was their convenience. There was a
really convenient place on a really good connected city. (The only
unconvenient thing is the hotel). So people started to assist the summit
for pure convenience. That is also one of the reasons it was always a
small event, and in several aspects, more informal. We already have the
big event where we choose a different venue every year, the GUADEC.
"Boston" Summit was never (AFAIK) intended to be "another GNOME big
event". As others already mentioned (II), just until some years ago
people started to ask help to the travel committee in order to assist,
and was in really specific cases.

What is the point of that long previous paragraph? Sincerely, for me,
taking into account that we are talking about a small event, just
starting to move to a different city for the sake of moving is an overkill.

And as Benjamin opened the can of "Europe is far far away from
Portland", this is even worse for people living in small cities. In my
case I assisted the Boston summit twice (2009, 2012). And it was a
Coruña-Madrid-Boston. In the hypothetical case of repeating this year,
that extra "hop" would mean Coruña-Madrid-Amsterdam-Portland or
Coruña-Madrid-Seattle-Boston.

>

Although working for the venue is appreciated, imho, is irrelevant. If
that extra hop means that suddenly every one (or almost every one)
interested on assist the summit would need to ask for help (or
extra-help) to the travel committee in order to assist, it doesn't
matter if we got a venue for free. It would be still really more
expensive, and more trip-exhausting.

I'm not sure if it will be that much.. but usually a lot of people fly into
Seattle or San Francisco and then take the flight to Portland.  Even
Vancouver works.  The flights from Seattle to PDX is only an hour or less.

But I'm under no illusion that for some that this might be harder to get
to.  I'm still working the venue and hopefully I'll have something by next
week.

It would be great if the foundation website could be updated to reflect
this, perhaps mentioning some other places where people can learn more
about the latest foundation activities and GNOME news.

Currently http://www.gnome.org/foundation/reports/ gives the impression
that foundation activity stopped somewhere around late 2011 (latest
budget is 2010-2011, reports ended late 2011/early 2012, last guadec
budget is from 2008).

I know Sri is working hard to look into organizing this in Portland, but I

Re: New service: Jabber.gnome.org

I did successfully export Daniel's roster and mailed it to him. Did the
same for you, that's all I can see on the database for the entry 'vuntz'.
As a side note if any old member had an huge number of registered contacts,
I can try to retrieve them from the old database if that's really needed.

Contact me on IRC if you need further assistance.
