Honestly I'm fine with the elected board helping to make this decision.
Folks that want to underwrite the event can submit a proposal to host,
board picks from the submissions? Having a wide vote on it seems overkill
to me.
Open call for submissions, board votes. Is that unreasonable?

Tom,
First off, thank you for organizing this event. It has proven to be a
success and the growth shows how much interest there is in the community. A
couple of ideas came to mind when I read your e-mail.
What about breaking the event up into regions? Or having additional
sponsors that are users
Hi Tom, et al,
1) I think corporate operators are fine sponsors (or as I prefer,
underwriters) of the event. But with modest/token acknowledgement only of
their largesse. *
2) No vendor booths. I'm fine with an Oprah sponsorship goodie bag on the
chairs or at registration time, but nothing more
Hi Tom,
I think this is a great problem to have. Difficult to solve, but it shows
how popular / important these meetups are.
I'm definitely in favor of a no booths type meetup. I feel if a company
wants to sponsor, they're doing it out of good will and any recognition
would come from that.
I'd

-1 on paid registration, I think we need to be mindful of the smaller
openstack deployers, their voice is an important one, and their access to
the larger operations teams is invaluable to them. I like the idea of
local teams showing up because it's in the neighborhood
Hi Tom, thanks for bringing up the subject. Like many commenters I share
some of the same views.
I'm very +1 on preventing vendor booth space from happening. This isn't
an event to sell a product, booth space would be wasted on both the
attendees and the booth staff.
I feel that multiple
ballpark figures based on past events, so we have some more data points?
Thanks!!

Tom,
In my opinion, we should not have booths at all. Actually, we should just only
have Operators attending this meetup with a limit of three attendees by
company. During the Philadelphia one I noticed that many of the attendees where
from the same company and I do not believe those companies
