Assume we are able to wrap up decisions (venue) and even call for
CFP by June end. That leaves < 3 months for sponsors, planning,
logistics, accessories (swags etc), talk review and the rest. I am not
confident this is enough.

It would be good to keep the tradition, but not sure that right
now we have the luxury of it.

I think we need to seriously consider dates in October as well.
And preferably towards end of October so we get close to 1 more
full month.

We should look at this once we have a decent idea of the dates.
Also factor in the costs of running for one more day with the
(expected) limited sponsorships.
