Some data about San Diego: Today, the flight information page on San Diego "International" Airport web site shows a couple of flights to/from Mexico and a couple to/from Canada -- all the others are within US. When meeting in North America, I would strongly prefer cities that have several direct flight connections from both Europe and Asia. Of the recent IETF meeting places, San Diego is the only one that clearly fails this criteria... so why are we going there again?
