Hi Gunnar, Thanks for your thoughts! Responding only to a couple excerpts out of order:

Indeed it won't; as I said in a follow-up, apparently the conference housing people will be providing window A/C units for those lodgings that don't have it. And regardless, yes, NY temperatures will be much milder than Extremadura. > > Cons: - The weather may be a bit hotter and more humid > > How discrete are your bits? If it is 2°C higher avg. as I understood, > no big deal Yes, that's correct, though NYC weather varies a lot more than many parts of the world - we can have hot periods right before or after cold periods. The humidity is really the subjectively bigger change. It feels different enough for me to have mentioned weather as a factor, but personally I don't think my preference for the June weather outweighs all the other advantages I see in the July/August dates. - Jimmy Kaplowitz ji...@debian.org _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
