So you already confirmed these dates on another email, but this was
quite a limited view span (the mailing list). If not mistaken, no
public announcement for LGM 17 has been made yet, with details on the
dates, location and others, and no call for talk either. And
apparently still no LGM 2017 website to refer people to.

With the rest of the GIMP team, we are starting to get a little
worried and we are not sure if we should start searching for an
accomodation yet. Could you reassure us?
Should we start planning our annual presence to LGM? When will the
public announcement and the call for talks happen?
Thanks!

Jehan
