Hi Michael, Exactly as you guessed - we put them on the list because we have not been to either for a long while and our old information and experience maybe quite out of date. We also have a whole new set of criteria to comply (MTGVenue) with so there maybe new factors that weren't considered before. -Glenn Deen (IAOC Chair) Sent from my iPad, please forgive any tpyos or auto connections > On Sep 4, 2018, at 6:05 PM, Michael StJohns <msj@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Quick process question.
