So the first "last call" was some time ago. There are

indicated in the article as well. It seems disingenuous to send it

should be concentrating on that wasn't there in the previous bids.
However, I don't want to put anyone on the spot. Is there something
we can highlight appropriately? (This is probably a question for
CommOps and the Flock team.)
AFAIK, it's down to cost. We need somewhere where a) the venue is
affordable and b) flights are cheap (the benchline is round-trip from
BOS, RDU, BOM, CDG, and PRG).
Based on experience in Rochester, it's also ideal if the venue _is_ the
hotel. (As I understand it, in that case, the venue was actually
_included_ when we booked enough rooms; I don't know if that can be
duplicated in Europe.)
