One of the more than reasonable, and frequent, suggestions 'bout JournalCon is to pick host cities and dates earlier than within the year previous. (JC 2001...

Austin journallers are pleased to submit their bid to host JournalCon 2003 in the Evil Music Capital of the World. Wait, did I say Evil? I meant Live. Anyway,...
Thanks, Jette, and great work. Your work given the challenges with the time frame of the request for bids and trying to get information out of hotels is...
Aloha mai! As of today, there is only one bid submitted for JournalCon 4. Honestly, I wasn't aware of any others in the works besides an early, early inquiry ...

Not a small detail... The Austin bid recommends October 17-19, 2002 as the date for JournalCon. Are there any objections? It doesn't conflict with Canada's...
