[LGM] ATTN ALL: Call for 2018 venue...

[Frank Trampe]

I hope that I'm proven wrong, but I think that we're unlikely to exceed 80
people per session given our current state of organization, and it's
embarrassing to have too oversized a venue. Big venues are also less cozy.

So I would hope that we would not delay planning waiting for a big venue
and that, if we do get one, we try to ascertain whether there is an
opportunity to switch to a smaller one at the same site in case our
preregistration figures make the big one seem inappropriate.
