It is as was as said in the announcement.  There were administrative,
monetary, or calendar issues with each of the bids.  In the end we had to
quickly make a decision on an alternate city.  Thankfully, Red Hat has
increased their support for Flock in the form of additional meeting
management assistance.  This allowed us to make a decision from a set of
alternate cities inspired by the original choices.  Dresden came out on top
as being able to meet our administrative, monetary and calendar needs.
