Rewinding eleven:

Hiroshima
Stockholm
San Francisco
Minneapolis
Dublin
Philadelphia
Vancouver
Chicago
Prague
San Diego
Montreal

Of these I can name only Dublin as falling into the category which you 
class as a pattern. I am not saying Maastricht or Dublin did not have
problems, I am saying the claim that there is a significant pattern 
here is over-stating it.

Please keep in mind that we have several "non-negotiable" requirements 
for venue selection. The first is actually availability of venue on 
our dates since our dates are FIXED. Proposals for changing the 
meeting model won't necessarily change that reality.
