ok, i have setup the next f2f as follows:
meeting location:
barnabey's hotel
3501 Sepulveda Blvd. (at Rosecrans)
Manhattan Beach, CA 90266

http://www.barnabeyshotel.com/
the room rates (with breakfast) are $99/night (you need to specify that
you are with the XACML group)
there is a shuttle from LAX to the hotel, so you shouldn't need to rent
a vehicle.
i have tentatively reserved the room from 8am - 5pm on january 23 and
january 24.
there will be refreshments in the room, but dinner and lunch are 'no host'.
