couple of months ago, some of us discussed the possibility of putting
together a proposal to host ICWSM in Riverside/SoCal for 2026.</div><div><br></div><div>Having
just attended this year's edition (in Buffalo), I think it will be a
tough sell. Even though the conference was in (remote) Buffalo, 350
people were registered (including those who only did so for
tutorials/workshops). The community is growing at an unprecedented
scale, so I wouldn't be surprised if we were to expect 500+ people in
2026.</div><div><br></div><div>This naturally rules out anything on
campus and in places we have experience with, like the Mission Inn.
Also, considering that ICWSM has N parallel workshops on Mondays, that
would leave us with having to go with a large hotel. Likely, this is
going to be expensive and nonideal :)</div><div><br></div><div>Having
said that, if anyone wants to throw their hat in the ring, please let me
know, and I'd be more than happy to help in any way I can (but wouldn't
have the energy to <i>lead</i> the effort), liaise with the ICWSM
Steering Committee, etc. They expect informal proposals over the next
few weeks.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,<br clear="all"><div><div
