I may be in the minority, but I'd really rather the IETF go places where the ability to "get work done" is the primary consideration. I'd like to second Mike here. admittedly I'm a boring type, my preference is a more or less fixed set of meeting locations (Minneapolis is just fine), one knows exactly what to expect, easy to plan. Perhaps easier on IAOC as well. However one of the few fundamental truths about Internet is its diversity, that applies to the community as well, hence those who desire pretty and small. I expect we end up in some kind of engineering decisions, trying best to accommodating different interest with well informed tradeoffs.
