>> Dear all,
>>
>> After one of the most competitive bids in our history, we have a winner
>> for FOSS4G 2025. The conference will go to Auckland, New Zealand. Auckland
>> LOC did great and the Conference Committee decided to entrust them with
>> responsibility of organizing the most important event in our community.
>> But, as you can see below, the vote was very tight! Both proposals were
>> amazingly good. It's such a pity to have just one winner. The voter's
>> opinion in this matter was already highlighted by Codrina. As a Conference
>> Committee, let's have a discussion with the Hiroshima LOC as soon as
>> possible, not to lose such great quality work. One may say, it was a
>> competition and we have a winner. True, but, in reality, it is quite
>> complicated to have a better proposal in 2026. Let's discuss this.
>>
>> To conclude, huge congratulations to both LOCs! Much appreciated!
>> Auckland, you did great  and you have the floor now!
>>
>> Warm regards,
