Hi list, What about Sorrento, there are good conference facilities, hotel rooms can cost as little as 60 euro per night, it's warm (temperature in between 10 and 20 C°), there a lot to see and to do(For example it's only twenty minutes from Pompei and fifteen from Capri) there is good transport, prices are low (It is south europe), I can get it organized if you don't want to go to siberia.

Now, that's what I'd like to hear. I also suggested Greece or Spain, anyway, somewhere in/close to Europe and south, so us guys living up north also get a break from cold weather... We can also move it somewhere in line March, so we don't conflict with Lionel's ski trip :P
I think the key factor is not a place, but someone who is willing to pull it all together. If you're saying you'll do that, Ivan, I think folks would be interested.
However, I do think Germany is more central to more Wine hackers (seems like it ought to be easy for at least some of us); and I also think that mid January is a time that works well.

You're out of luck... In March there is my SECOND snowboarding week :-)
