Lets begin working on Phase 2 using what we have so far from Phase 1.

Location:
Toronto and New York City seemed to be the top picks for locations. A couple people have gathered some information on Toronto, but still nobody has seemed to have collected anything for New York City. So while NYC is fading out of the picture, I have spoken with Ducky and she has been busy collecting information on Boston, so we will probably have two locations to choose from. Once Ducky is finished putting together details for Boston, and the information collected for Toronto is also put together, then we should be good to make a final decision on the city.

Month:
Overall, early August seems to be the best time for most people, so I guess that's what we'll be shooting for.

Days:
Here's where I have something new for you. Since we know we're going for early August, I'd like to try to pin down the exact days people want. I wrote up a quick poll for people to take so we can try to find the best match for that.

So everyone thinking they might come, take that poll. If you don't understand it, I'll try to explain it a little better. My personal recommendation for the prefered dates (in case you don't really care or have anything in mind for that) is something like from the 4th to the 7th. That way both week days and weekend are included.

Activities:
I think we have the gereal idea, but now we have to wait till we finalize the city.

[edit: made the date poll link more obvious, hint hint]
