It appears that Laura Nugent <lnugent@staff.ietf.org> said: >In line with our venue selection process we present assessment reports and preliminary recommendations for each city: > > Montevideo, no recommendation, report at [1] I have been to Montevideo and it is a lovely city once you get there. But getting there is painful since it is a small city with limited connections. A lot of international connections go via Miami which requires going through US immigration, or multiple hops via Madrid and Sao Paulo. Or you can take the ferry from Buenos Aires which is cheap and comfortable, but perhaps daunting to people who don't speak Spanish, and requires transiting through Argentina. R's, John
