I was wondering if there was any word on to where it might be next ?
Also i wanted to know from everyone that if you could go to the next conference what in particular would you like to hear about while there?

Hi,
the normal procedure is that at some time in the future the ICPS will ask for proposals to hold a conference (forum, list server, etc). At this time it has not been decided when that call for proposals will be made. For 2012 the only "rule" that is fixed is that it should be in "The America's" due to the rotating schedule. In the proposal it is up to the bidding organization as to what theme or subjects are addressed, but speaking from experience I would say aim for a wide spread over the species and try to get some good speakers that can give a top of the line talk without flooding the audience with graphs and figures. You want the big names to come, but also the local guy.
Proposals are judged and based on these proposals the conference is awarded to one of the parties.
