- European attendees have to trek over to LA
I expect the cost of the travel for the European attendees to out-weigh the savings on food and lodging. I'd much rather see it held somewhere in the EU though maybe thats just because I like getting out of the US. If the European developers want to come over then as far as the technical side of the conference goes LA seems to work best but I'd still rather it be in Amsterdam or Berlin. One thing I always keep in mind is the wineconf turns in to something more in regards to the social experience when we meet. Not that I am trying to knock on LA or Californian culture in general, I just think, for me at least another EU conf will be much more enjoyable and the same presentations and discussions can happen no matter where we hold it.
