Hi Jeff,

We didn't receive any location proposals, so we're working on locations and
will announce when we have something set up.

Since the global SotM event is usually held in the second half of the year
we've moved the time frame for SotM US up to Spring so that it's not too
close to the global event. This puts us in March-May and FOSS4G is in
September. Also, we've already had a SotM in Portland and while it was
pretty darn great, we're trying to spread the love to other cities, too.

-Ian
