All the locations suggested are co-located with big Linux Foundation events (but I don't want to pre-announce their schedule)

I have a strong preference for a XenSummit near some other big event
such as LinuxCon or FOSDEM.  It's not worth making the trip to a far-off
location just for a one or two-day dev summit, much as I'd enjoy it!

The overloading of microconferences happens all the time.  Most
people only really have a conflict between one or two things, and I
just hop between events for the interesting bits for me.
