I haven't seen anyone post negative comments about Prague in this 
thread.  By way of probing, I'll ask for them.  For example, do folks 
who live outside of that region not care about the additional hop of 
travel to get to it?

Asia is east of Prague.

sigh.  sorry.

As Bob has noted from the IAOC presentation, Asia is actually proving a 
challenge.  Due to language and culture challenges, we seem to really 
need a host.  And there there are price problems we keep hitting.

While it's not automatic that these are mutually exclusive, I sometimes 
find it confusing to discern the criteria that participants apply.
