http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/State_Of_The_Map_2014 for it to come to the US again, you'd need a local organizing committee that wanted to prepare a bid. for Denver, there was such a group and they were supported by OSM US, which chose not to organize an SOTM US that year since SOTM was coming here. i note from the wiki page that SOTM is trying to go for a longer baseline in organizing these events. i think that OSM US should also think in those terms. it would be really nice if, during the closing session of SOTM US, the place for next year's SOTM US could be announced. there's a ways to go for that tough, which i think is clear from the fact that no local committees stepped up during the call for SOTM US proposals this year. richard
