Re: REMINDER: Doodle: Face to Face meeting in September 2015

I'd like to see a clarification here before I submit any poll response 
-- the dates I can attend change quite a bit depending on where we'll be 
meeting.

One subtlety that is easy to overlook is that a meeting on September 9th 
in Europe requires US attendees to depart on Memorial Day in order to 
attend. In addition to requiring people to brave Christmas-travel-level 
chaos in US airports, I suspect that many Americans have family 
obligations that would prevent being able to do so. It's certainly true 
in my case.
