The CINLUG board came up with a similar idea about combining the various
Midwest Linux conferences into a single annual Midwest event that
rotated among the states.  Indiana could host one year, Ohio the next,
Michigan the third, etc.  I think it's a great idea and by pooling
resources and attendee pools we can potentially create better events
than we could individually.
