But wasn't the point to have the other meeting at TEI Conference and alternate location to make transatlantic flights fairer over the year?

Folks on this side of the Atlantic will need a Saturday night stay going to Europe (so extra travel time) just as folks coming here from there will. Martin will be extra-jetlagged going there. The local organizer makes arrangements for the venue and accommodations, sorts out meals, (maybe) handles some transportation, or at least gives advice on getting there and getting to the venue. It isn't all that hard—it just means being organized and making sure the details are covered (e.g. getting a meeting room with a projector, wifi, and sufficient power outlets).

Would it make more sense to do it in Spring 2016 then? I agree with Syd that hosting and serving as chair will be a pain, but if it means not getting on yet another plane, I’m totally willing to do it:-). Hosting isn’t*that* much of a pain. My travel schedule out through August is getting close to my saturation point.
If travel is the issue and more people have issues to get to the US than the other way round I may ask whether we could host this. talking about the amount of pain that is involved, what is actually involved? A room for ~10p should be possible to get here at Austrian National Library.
cheers, Stefan
