In planning for a VCF East Coast, I wanted to take a poll from folks as to where the ideal location would be. I am currently thinking that somewhere in the New England area would work the best, but what do I know, since I've never been there (besides passing through the airports). In deciding on a locale, I'd like to keep these criteria in mind: 1) Availability of an affordable location suitable for the Festival 2) Geographical proximity to the most number of potential attendees 3) Proximity to major airports 4) Availability of decent accomodations 5) Weather 6) Historical relevance (i.e. near Route 128, as a parallel to doing the main Festival in the Silicon Valley) So if those who are entertaining the notion of going to a VCF East could mosey on over to the following URL and fill in the survey I'd be most appreciative. http://www.vintage.org/survey.html This will help me decide on a place to host the first VCF East. As far as timing, it will have to fall somewhere in between VCF Europa (April 28-29, 2001) and VCF 5.0 (Fall 2001). Basically, late Spring, early Fall. Thanks!
