I just remembered that I wanted to reply to this one … Well the thing is, that I won’t be able to convince my company to have me fly to the US just for a FlexJS event with about 10-30 attendees.
Would it be an option, if there was a FlexJS Day before the conference, but attendees wouldn’t have to buy a ticket for the entire conference, but could only come (and eventually pay) for the FlexJS event? This way I could justify the costs with my boss … speaking at the FlexJS event and the Conference would definitely be enough for them.

Having another FlexJS World Tour event would probably be a good thing. Not sure if ApacheCon is the place to do it. Did you do some FlexJS talks at ApacheCon EU? How was attendance? You had good attendance at ApacheCon NA, but I'm not sure we hooked any new committers from it. That's why I wonder if there is some other place and time we should have an event. When are other folks available to travel to the US and/or Europe in 2017? Miami is so far away from Seattle, it might as well be in another continent. US West Coast is always easier for me.
