Hi Greg,
I wasn't trying to be bitchy my friend - it was a 'seriously please consider KohaCon13 in USA" suggestion :)
Cheers Jo.
PS I imagine a small town USA experience would be pretty unique actually :)

Us host KohaCon13? In St. Joseph, Missouri? After New Zealand, India and Scotland?
Tell you what, let's all get together in Bangkok, Thailand, from June 1 to June 30 for KohaCon 2013. Nothing in the KohaCon charter says it has to be held near a Koha library, right? I can get there in mid-May and make all the arrangements, and stay till mid-July for cleanup.
