So, I think in the next day, we should pick the location and date for the "spring" meeting. I'd also suggest it be a 6 month interval between meetings, which is the other reason I thought end of  january was a bit too soon.

Sound OK?

What Stefan says is very true. I have friends here in the US who must have 2016 travel approved by dec. 31 2015.

I also want to double stress the importance of getting an official
invitation out early is crucial. People from overseas might need to go
through a visa application process to attend, which might take several
months (and is not seldomly tied to an official invitation)
