4 I would generally argue that visibility on existing conferences is
5 likely better cost/benefit than hosting large conferences on our own, in
6 particular given the geographically diverse membership.

8 That said, we already do this successfully with e.g gentoo miniconf;
9 very nice conference (thanks to those hosting it) and at relatively low
10 cost as track on other linux conferene (In case of others; I'm
11 specifically thinking of the prague ones).

13 We have from time to time talked about a day before/after FOSDEM as that
14 seems to be the largest single meeting point, but the idea, at least for
15 me, is mostly rejected as people are tired enough after such a large
16 conference and I don't see very much gain from it vs just the stand we
17 have today at substantially lower cost.
