Here's the last batch of videos from SMOFCon in Columbus. It's the selection of the 2009 SMOFCon followed by presentations of bids for 2010 (including January 2011), 2011, and 2012.
SMOFCon 27 (2009) Site Selection: selection of Austin, Texas to host SMOFCon 27, December 4-6, 2009.
SMOFCon 28 (2010/11) Bids: While the traditional date of SMOFCon is one of the first two weekends of December, there have been SMOFCons held on other dates, such as the year it was on the island of Jersey the weekend after Eastercon. Two groups are bidding to host SMOFCon 28: Glenn Glazer presented a bid for San Jose over the traditional dates in December 2010, and Mary Kay Kare presented a bid for the first full weekend of January 2011. I'm not going to go into details -- they are in the video, and besides, as a corporate officer of SFSFC, sponsor of the San Jose bid, I have an obvious conflict of interest that would call into question any impartial discussion of the bids.
SMOFCon 29 (2011) Bids: Bids for Amsterdam and Maui, both on the traditional early-December dates.
SMOFCon 30 (2012) Bids: Expression of interest from Pittsburgh.
