The only reasons why I proposed Amsterdam are the Open Source Summit and that I have some ways to help out with organizing the event over there. I would be equally happy with alternatives like Canada, but didn't really want to propose alternatives like this myself because I would have to push the entire burden onto somebody else. So if it would be a possibility and if people could help out getting things organized in other countries/continents I'd be happy. Patrick
