That's not the right venue:

"This mailing list acts as a dropbox for community input on venue selection (sites, process). The list recipients are current members of the IAOC or its meetings committee. 

The archive is PUBLIC, but as a drop box, it is not meant for discussion threads. 

For discussion of IETF meeting sites, please join mtgvenue@xxxxxxxx ."

By the way, RFC3005 also forbids announcing conferences in this list and we got a couple of them in the last few months, and no warning was provided. I will suggest equal treatment to any RFC3005 related issues.

Regards,
Jordi
