It's a possibility yes.

In any case I hope that OSGeo puts more of a priority on the AGM each 
year, it frustrates me that if it wasn't for Yves asking we wouldn't 
even be talking about this now.  To me it's one of the most important 
parts of OSGeo (actually meeting face to face with the membership and 
providing a forum) and we should have someone dedicated to organizing it 
each year.
