I too would prefer September 27-29. -d On Aug 11, 2011, at 4:15 PM, Rolf Rabenseifner wrote:

For me, the weekend before is already filled (and the event is already booked). I automatically expected the usual rule: After EuroMPI, Sep.27-29 (3 days) or Sep.27-30 (4days) Most of us do not attend the EuroMPI tutorials, therefore with EuroMPI talks + Forum only 3 days, we have in total a 6 day week which is still okay and reduces total travel time and costs.

To finalize the schedule for 2012, we need to come to a decision on the date for the MPI Forum meeting in Europe next year. EuroMPI is scheduled for Sept 23-26, 2012. There are two possible dates that could go with this (trying to avoid meetings over the weekend) Staying over a weekend without any reason may cause significant costs for some of us. Why can we not meet during the weekend? I propose 9/27-9/29 or 9/20-9/22.

Thanks & All the Best, Torsten
