If you are seriously tentative on those dates, I would like to plan a joint meet in the NorthEastern US to coinside with the meet in Europe for those of us who can't get over there. How much planning is needed to pull this off? I am thinking a hotel to book as a small convention. A couple of conference rooms for discussion, hotel rooms for attendees if they want them, plan a drive out, 1-2 dinners and leave the rest open and casual. Maybe we could hook up a video link back and forth for an owners round table. What do you think about that or would it be too much hassle and I should try to plan it for a different weekend?
