This is a change from the published plan, which said Europe. There's probably a good reason for that, such as us being close to agreeing the next meeting to be in Europe or Asia. Then again, that was the plan already in http://www3.ietf.org/meetings/0mtg-sites.txt ... In any case, it appears that (1) the balance has shifted from what it should be by participation and (2) we really need sponsors. My conclusion would have been to indicate to the sponsors that outside-NA is also possible.
