America? Is it the continent, or the country?
As has been said many times in the past, returning to the same venue over
and over again really isn't a problem to me. How a about Minneapolis,
Montreal, and... well... I can't think of another "M"-city that we've been to
already.

If going to four meetings provided more time for actual workshops, like
was just had at ISC for DNSSEC - three days of intensive working together
in a small group, then we'd get more done.
I am of the opinion that the IETF needs far more organized time for
"running code" before "rough consensus" is tested for.
