E.g. Making a choice based on incorrect or incomplete data is worse than delaying the choice a few months especially since we're talking about dates 4-7 years out. > > [My assumption that you've based the choice of locations on the 1/1/1 model may be incorrect, but seems supported by the presentations and comments] While I can't speak for Marshall, I think he was pointing out that the IAD sent out proposed dates for 2014-2017 to the community and no comments were received. This was done twice and afterwards the IAOC adopted the dates. Also, to your other query, these dates did not specify a meeting location. That is the point of this discussion.

Say, early June or September would probably have less conflicts with family vacations, daycare shutdown periods, and the like. It would probably make it possible for more people to join the meeting. Of course, any change in the meeting dates would be slow.
