Figured you'd handle this.  ;-)

Seems to me that even more than most conventions, the critical resource
for the dirt-cheap conference is facilities, so we need to find someone
or some group willing to handle that (and pick a date) before we do
anything else.

I suggested earlier that we ask YAS to set up a donation pool for
getting the necessary front money, but I didn't get a clear response on
what was needed for that.
