Voting for the location of the CIS-2107 tournament.

Moreover, if we have a good team (Bishop is getting involved, Khivanna is ready to make things happen, and we'll find some other reasonable people, and it's easier to find a suitable organizer for a decent team), we'll offer several options, and the community can choose one of them.

And this year, those who can, let's go to Volgograd, see the strengths and weaknesses that will be there. Because organizing a CIS event if you haven't been to even one is a hopeless task...
Even being at just one isn't enough... AlexXL can confirm – how Merlin arrived early in 2015 and started criticizing him because various minor details were not taken into account.
