This American views it as a great excuse to go to Europe.
I can see Chicago anytime.  Istanbul is something special.
And while there are differences between American cities,
it's nowhere near the differences we get between different
European countries.  The diversity is awesome.

I'm not saying this is necessarily a reason to keep it in
Europe.  I'm just saying it's why I, in particular, don't
care if GUADEC is ever on my side of the pond.
