I think this is *very* much worth doing. (Full disclosure: I tried
to get IETF-72 in Trinity College Dublin but that fell over thanks
in part to our local fascist sysadmins who hopefully don't read this
list;-)
It's worth noting that trinity didn't actually have meeting room big enough for
the plenary at least as the plan for the venue I was consulted on went. each
venue has unique challenges, some are harder than others.
Having worked at a large US state school for more than a decade, only the
summer meeting is likely to align with an academic calender in a way that
wouldn't cause people to laugh hysterically and show you the door.
