The reason why I suggest this date, is that in Poland we have so called 'long weekend' from 1st-4th of May. But this not necessary means more people (from Poland) would take part in LGM, on contrary most of the people just go on holidays. Also on 1st and 3rd everything is closed, and all the airports are quite crowded. However I can understand that it might be more convenient to organize it one week before (2-4 May), if during this time in other countries there is also a 'long weekend' which makes it more easy to come. > Even with 3 days, the schedule was very tight.

Let's go! We have an organising team, we have a nice and welcoming city! I agree with Craig that Thursday-Sunday is better than Friday-Monday. A 4-day event is a very good idea. Let's secure the dates and make sure they don't interfere with some important event for any of the participating teams. From there, let's announce Wroclaw and let's get things going. You make the call when you're ready. Any of the week-ends you mention are fine for me too. Cheers!
