Why Kauai? You list detailed reasons why Hawaii is logical and
solves for many of the problems, but you don't say why this island.
Because it's the nicest, obviously. :)
I strongly disagree: the leeward coast of Maui (in particular, Kihei &
south) is far better. Kauai is way too rainy...
We can even rotate islands if people get bored.
Well, there are extensive conference facilities on Oahu, the Big
Island, Maui, and Kauai. I have no information as to if they would
work for a group of our size and with our need for breakout rooms.
I used to attend IEEE 802 and they met in Kauai (Grand Hyatt in Poipu)
every few years, but they were a smaller group. There aren't many
restaurants nearby, but I certainly don't remember anyone ever
complaining about it. ;)
3GPP2 used to (still does?) meet in Wailea every December. Although that is
also a much smaller group than the IETF, the hotels dwarfed it so it might
be possible to find a reasonable venue for the IETF. However, I think that
this is just an idle fantasy: the IETF has too much moral fiber to meet
someplace that might actually be fun ;-).
