Yup. Discussions should be on the list exactly like we did for the earlier
one.

I agree. I however don't want the society to 'formally award' anything. That
gives power to small bunch of people and I don't think that's cool.

If there are conflicting proposals, we'll bring it here on the list and beat
it out. I'd prefer that there be no need for arbitration etc.

Nope. I don't think so. We'd beat it out here and then with the +1s, we'd
decide. The society and it's office bearers shouldn't have some kind of
privilege to bless a group with the right to hold the a conference. If too
many people create a ruckus, it'd have to do something but not as a general
rule.
