I'm sort of reading this and sort of staying out of the discussion, but:

    -  The Oregon Convention Center is far from perfect, but I
       think it is affordable.  It is worthly of consideration.

    -  How much conference space does the Jantzen Beach Double Tree have?
       I suppose the Holt Center is inconveniently located for O'Reilly
       (and PLUG).

                                                     Dave
