Isn't that because clojure core is there?

I suppose so, but not a particularly good reason.

Can you think of any reasons why it is a particularly bad reason? Last year's Conj seemed to work pretty nicely in Durham.

Durham again? seriously?

Because it's awesome! Microbreweries, a wonderful community, excellent food, and you can cross off the #35 place you must visit in 2011 according to the New York Times!

(I recommend Scratch for breakfast, Toast for lunch, and Dos Perros for dinner…)

(currently waiting for my visa to come through so I can join my wife there, so forgive me for waxing lyrical about the place :))

I can't wait for this. The first conj was a great experience. I hope this years will be bigger and better than last, and there's no reason to believe it won't be.

My only complaint is that it'd have been nicer if it was downtown instead of close to the airport (apparently Durham doesn't have any large event space downtown, which is why it wasn't--or so I was told). I'd have maybe liked to explore Durham a bit more.
