3	Jun 29, 2009 7:51 PM	Yes.
4	Jun 29, 2009 9:32 PM	OK
5	Jun 30, 2009 6:19 AM	I guess it is just fair.
6	Jun 30, 2009 8:44 AM	seems fine, until other continents develop a significant presence in the field
7	Jun 30, 2009 9:21 AM	Since my home is in Europe and school in US, this sounds very ideal !
8	Jun 30, 2009 9:29 AM	It is not a bad idea, although Kansas city on itself was rather boring.
9	Jun 30, 2009 11:36 AM	It is OK so.
10	Jun 30, 2009 2:07 PM	Yes.
11	Jun 30, 2009 5:37 PM	It's fine. If other countries want host, let them do it also.
12	Jul 1, 2009 3:13 PM	Absolutely preferable.
13	Jul 1, 2009 5:44 PM	Sure, sounds fine.
14	Jul 2, 2009 6:35 PM	yes
15	Jul 2, 2009 8:09 PM	Yes, it is good.
16	Jul 4, 2009 6:13 AM	It is fine, considering all the groups from countries that are interested and able to manage the organization.
17	Jul 6, 2009 8:34 PM	No comment
18	Jul 7, 2009 1:04 AM	Yes
19	Jul 8, 2009 12:28 PM	Sure, especially given the international mix of the attendees.
20	Jul 8, 2009 6:34 PM	This is great.
21	Jul 8, 2009 7:50 PM	current way is good
22	Jul 9, 2009 8:50 AM	Fine
23	Jul 9, 2009 6:59 PM	ok
24	Jul 10, 2009 5:36 AM	Yes. Let's do some travel along the way also. What about Asia??? South America???
25	Jul 10, 2009 11:19 AM	yes, ok
26	Jul 10, 2009 9:08 PM	OK with me except for cost
27	Jul 11, 2009 9:35 PM	Other regions can be involved as hosts, Asia or Australia for example.
28	Jul 12, 2009 5:38 PM	I agree.
29	Jul 22, 2009 2:05 PM	Actually, it alternates between Germany and the USA. Both North America and Europe comprise more countries. So, why not schedule a meeting in Canada, the Netherlands, Spain, etc?
30	Jul 24, 2009 5:10 PM	that's fine!
31	Jul 24, 2009 6:04 PM	I am afraid for Americans it will be too expensive to go to europe pretty soon
32	Jul 24, 2009 7:00 PM	I think its OK, but with the present state of the economy it's hard to know
33	Jul 25, 2009 8:35 AM	Since the participation, and research activity as well, is shared in the two continents, it is fair to keep the alternation.
34	Jul 27, 2009 6:24 AM	Hopefully all in United States of America, because visa is a problem.
35	Jul 28, 2009 11:10 PM	North America is more convenient for me. Otherwise I have no opinion regarding effects to content or outcome.
36	Jul 29, 2009 3:00 AM	Yes, this allows researchers from different continents to meet
37	Aug 5, 2009 3:32 PM	I wouldn't want to travel out of the US for this more than once per 3 years if possible.
