I have no preference here.

There should be serious consideration for Canada only because visa issues may prevent some participants from traveling into the US. I know that some academic conferences have moved from US to Canada (even after already being scheduled for a US location) due to recent changes and general volitility in visa policies. Perhaps I'm making a big deal about something that doesn't affect any contributors that would join us, so I hope that anyone concerned about this can speak up (or contact Peff privately).

Thanks, -Stolee
