"A 'conspiracy theory' was floated that ARMA was not releasing the list of future locations because they did not want people to pick and choose the conferences based on location, but to plan to attend every year.  I know there are other conferences that only release the future location after the previous conference has ended, so it is not an out of the ordinary practice.  It is however a departure from what we are used to."

To echo many of the comments made already, I would like to see a list of the cities for future conferences, but I will take them as they come.  I am looking forward to San Diego next year but I wish we wouldn't go back to the same cities over and over again.  There are a lot of cities that I think would be great venues for the annual conference like St. Louis, Milwaukee, Denver, Phoenix, Seattle, Atlanta, Minneapolis, etc.  I would love to go to Canada for a conference as well.  I was not very pleased with the Las Vegas venue and I probably won't go back to Vegas if the conference is held there again.

Overall, I think justifying almost $1K for the registration fee and other expenses is getting harder and harder.  Is there any thought about possibly expanding the Expo back to 2+ days because only having essentially 1 1/2 days to meet with the vendors I wanted to talk to is not nearly enough time?

Thanks, Steve
