All this 2010 KP talk is very very premature, gents. What we really ought to do is discuss at the 2009 KP... with two topics to be decided by consensus:
1. Will indeed the tradition be followed, and organization of 2010 revert to NorCal?
2. If so, who will step up and make it happen?
Note also that the answer to 2 kinda determines the answer to 1. That is, whoever the hell wants to make the arrangements, have at it. Hopefully a NorCal does step up, but if not, anything is fair game. And whoever decides to do it - THEY ALSO DECIDE THE VENUES (as Peter says). Oh suggestions can and should obviously be given... but if there's one thing that's proven true time and time again with these things, it's that talk is cheap and actions speak loudly.
In any case, all this really ought to be discussed among the participants... and in any case it's way way way too early to even think about right now.
