Speaking as a member of the IAOC (and not FOR the IAOC), I believe 
that our role, and certainly our goal, is to "pick a venue where we 
can have a successful and productive meeting". And yes, this does 
include considerations of transportation, hotels, restaurants and 
other resources.

Do we always get this "right"? No. Does it usually involve some kind 
of tradeoff? Yes.

Certainly. Then there is the matter of availability for our fixed and 
announced dates, financial considerations, host vs no-host, and so on.

I do agree, that at least in the long run we most likely could make 
this easier and more predictable by taking a number of steps which 
have already been outlined on this list.
