Warm places are expensive to be in and get to in January,
and I already know of people developing X-related things
whose companies could not afford to get them to the last X
conference.  Have the conference during spring break or
summer if you must, but keep it at MIT, and keep it cheap.
MIT does HAVE a spring break, doesn't it?  :-)

It's possible to walk around MIT hardly going outside.
Detailed indoor directions (possibly verbal rather than a
map) from a T (subway) stop and one or more hotels to the
lecture/BOF/tutorial locations would help people keep warm.

I live within walking distance of Cambridge, and it's
usually cold, but definitely not THAT cold.

These opinions are my own.  Who else would want them? :-)
