TPC is already on the West Coast (San Diego next year) , so there is really no need for an other conference in the area. YAPC started up as a cheap conference on the East Coast for those whose company would not fork out the $3000 it costs to go to TPC, let's keep it this way.

I'd vote for Boston, Jon Orwant would not have to travel that far (he lives in Cambridge), it's near my former house and we could play pool afterwards at Flat Top Johnny.
