No offers made privately (why do you ask?), the offers we had were on the
wiki. Those offers were Tokyo, Lyon, and Stockholm. According to the
availability table, everyone was able to come to Europe, but not everyone
could make it to Asia, so we decided not to do it in Tokyo this time. The
Lyon location was an hour or two further away from most locations and the
Stockholm location (except from France, of course). So I proposed doing it
in Stockholm and no one objected.

I'm that we didn't realize/remember that you were spending time and effort
on finding a location.
