This year's GalleryCon will be held August 27-30 in Santa Fe, NM. The conference will be a code sprint to the finish to put the finishing touches on the latest version, Gallery 3.
Settled in 1515 and made a capital in 1610, Santa Fe is the oldest capital city in the United States. The town sits at an elevation of 7200 feet above sea level at the foot of the southern tip of the Sangre de Christo mountain range. Known for it's Native American and Spanish history, the area offers many unique cultural and historical museums and landmarks. Many points of interest are within walking distance of Santa Fe's historic plaza.
Temperatures in August range from mid 80s to low 90s (f) with a very low humidity level. The air cools quickly in the evenings.
The proposed schedule begins Thursday morning and will run through Saturday afternoon.

Although commercial carrier service to Santa Fe recently resumed, you'll likely find that flying to Albuquerque and arranging ground transport to Santa Fe much more economical. The Albuquerque Int'l Sunport is serviced by most major airlines, including American, Delta, Continental, Northwest, Southwest, and US Airways.
Rental cars, shuttles, and the NM Rail Runner Express are all available to move you between The Duke City (ABQ) and The City Different (SF). Several hotels are within walking distance of the NM Rail Runner's downtown Santa Fe stop and airport shuttles will deliver you directly to most major hotels.
Sandia Shuttle Express Telephone: (505) 242-0302 or (888) 775-5696 (toll free) Shuttle between Albuquerque International Sunport and Santa Fe.
Roadrunner Shuttle Services Telephone: (505) 424-3367 Door to door service from ABQ to points & places in Santa Fe.
The following list are recommended places to stay while in Santa Fe. The closer the hotel is to the Plaza, or downtown the higher the rate. Santa Fe has an abundance of hotels. Feel free to find your own through these quick hotel search results.

I've heard back from the Santa Fe Complex, La Fonda, and Hotel Santa Fe and have viewed conference facilities for each. My recommendation is La Fonda, based on price, proximity to tourist attractions for SOs, and quality of the meeting room.

Thursday 9:00am - 1:00pm - Project discussion, budget review, community, project web site 2:00pm - 6:00pm - Code sprint begins
