As advisory board member to the Drupal Association I was asked by the Drupal Association to chair and compose a new committee that will be selecting the destination for Drupalcon 2013.

The European Selection Committee is tasked with selecting ten potential locales for the European DrupalCon in 2013 based on a set of predetermined criteria for the selection. Once we have selected the cities, we will then provide a poll for the community to respond as to which location they would prefer. Once the top three locations have been decided, the DA's Events Director will then do the fiscal and logistical analysis as to which location would be cost effective and work out best for us.
