Hi Anita,

Well - we are not running out to soon of dev-meeting locations that 
haven't been used as release names yet: Essen, Hannover, Lyon, Nødebo, 
Zurich, Gran Canaria. Then there are the hackfests that are not in 
Middle Europe, such as Tokyo, Moscow.

Also, there are 2 additional dev meetings each year.

So I wouldn't be worried about names yet ;-) Enough names for years to come.

Personally I would propose Essen for either the next release or the next 
LT release. We could ask the German QGIS user group to come up with a 
suitable map for Essen or a map of the Linux hotel.
