I think they're both really interesting bids as well.  I also keep
hearing rumors that we're going to get a bid for Milan, Italy too.

My idea was to involve the European ambassadors and FAMSCo in the
decision-making process, as they're the ones most directly involved in
the decision.  For FUDCon LATAM, the community came together and
agreed on Panama, so I didn't have to do much decision-making from my
side.

And yes, I'm aware that if we decide on Dublin, then we'll be very
short on time.
