Submission
Discussion in support of the venue selection motion:• Sessions in Australia have not promoted participation and
therefore do not serve their “International” intent.– Attendance is poor– Some Task Groups do not scheduling meeting times.
• Sessions in Australia have resulted in deficits.– Melbourne: -24,271 USD (.15-06/0458r0)– Cairns: -65,099 USD (.15-05/405r0)
• Consumed 54,214 AUD (est. 41,532 USD) excess from Berlin• A disproportionate number of meetings have been held in
Australia.– 3 out of 45 to date / 4 out of 56 being considered
• Session 107 – Sydney – January 2008 (Tentative)• Session 99 – Melbourne – September 2006• Session 91 – Cairns – May 2005• Session 73 – Sydney – May 2002
– 50% of ALL sessions held outside of North America
