Sorta

http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Talk:Koha_Conference_Bidding is
worth readint too, as well as
http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/KohaCon2011_Proposals

My suggestions learnt from hosting Kohacon10 .. get a venue and dates as
early as possible, to give people plenty of times to organise travel.
Then get speakers lined up, once you have those 3 things, everything
else starts clicking into place.
