Could you please provide pointers to such articles?

I believe this is the right way to decide. The problem is that when comments are thrown out to a mailing-list without checking what's the information that is being spread, that ends up polluting and biasing the discussion unfairly and inappropriately. As a datapoint, Buenos Aires is *full* of brazillians these days -- I guess both because we're geographically near, but also because the exchange rate benefits brazillians (I haven't checked lately, but I'd bet that you can get most stuff for about 50% or 70% of the price of what you pay in Brazil). And I know of quite a few brazillians myself that have recently traveled to Argentina to attend meetings, and others that are planning to do so to attend meetings or conferences (Internet and/or security related) held in Buenos Aires. As noted in some other emails, I'm not even weighing in regarding the pro's and con's of having a meeting in Argentina, but rather pointing out that making public statements regarding based on what has been "heard", "rumors", or what some idiot posted on a blog pollutes and biases the discussion unfairly and inappropriately.
