One reason why I was never enthusiastic about going from our house to 
hotels for LogFest.  Really, it seems like the three of you: Mark, Robin, 
and you strongly prefer a hotel, and everyone else prefers to be 
noncommittal and to decide on the spur of the moment whether to attend, 
which makes non-hotel a preference.  I rarely had more than a few people 
commit to attending before I had full specifics laid out, and non-locals 
tended to be around 50/50 on actually coming if they gave a tentative 
commitment.

Lacking the annual meeting as a reason to attend, LogFest has only a vague 
market audience, especially if travel is required.  Perhaps if/when someone 
has the time/energy to plan much more in advance and make some effort to 
publicize it, LogFest could grow again.  But I'm not willing to plan an 
out-of-house LogFest unless we can piggyback on an SF convention (and maybe 
not even then).
