I disagree quite strongly.
Some people couldnt make this year, maybe they can make next
year. Some
of the people who made this year, cant make next year.
The project is so vibrant and changes so much, 2 years is too
long in my
opinion. If we keep with the 6 month schedule that will be 4
major
releases between conferences.
People don't have to attend them all, if you can only attend
ever 2nd or
3rd year, then so be it. But I think that that isnt a reason to
only
hold them ever 2 years. It will actually make it less likely
people can
attend one imho, and they will rotate around the world faster.
