About the Sep.-meeting 2012:

We have only a few statements on date at EuroMPI 2012
with mainly two alternatives next year 2012:
 - MPI-3 Wed-Fri Sep 19-21  + EuroMPI Sun-Thu Sep 23-26
   with free whole Saturday;
 - EuroMPI Sun-Thu Sep 23-26 + MPI-3 Fri-Sat Sep 27-29
   (6 day work for those who omit the conference tutorials
   with free Fri-morning).
I believe, we should decide this at the next meeting,
with additional votes as reply to this mail from
those who want to come 2012 but cannot come to Santorini.

Date: Aug 24, 2011
Sept 19-21: In conjunction with EuroMPI

Darius Buntinas:
I too would prefer September 27-29.
--------------------------------

For me, the weekend before is already filled (and the event is 
already booked).
I automatically expected the usual rule:
After EuroMPI, Sep.27-29 (3 days) or Sep.27-30 (4days)
Most of us do not attend the EuroMPI tutorials,
therefore with EuroMPI talks + Forum only 3 days,
we have in total a 6 day week which is still okay
and reduces total travel time and costs.

--------------------------------

Staying over a weekend without any reason may cause significant costs
for some of us. Why can we not meet during the weekend? I propose
9/27-9/29 or 9/20-9/22.

Thanks & All the Best,
  Torsten

Bronis R. de Supinski:
I don't see any conflicts yet. I think it is good to get things
finalized ASAP as you suggest. I aslo agree that having fewer
intervening days will work better. So 9/18-21/12 looks best.
--------------------------------

Assuming MPI-3 is out before that meeting, do we still need a 4-day mtg? If we make this one 3 days, 
we can have it on Thu-Sat after EuroMPI as usual.

Date: Aug 11, 2011
To finalize the schedule for 2012, we need to come to a decision on the 
date for the MPI Forum meeting in Europe next year.  EuroMPI is scheduled 
for Sept 23-26, 2012.  
There are two possible dates that could go with this (trying to avoid meetings over the weekend)
Sep 18:noon - 21:noon, or Oct 1:noon - 4:noon.  
I am inclined to go with the first date, as it leaves one weekend day 
between the Forum meeting and EuroMPI, rather than 4 days between the 
end of EuroMPI and the MPI Forum.  What are people's opinions here ?
