Id say the last week of April with the bi-annual AMS conference probably should be on the list, as that is where the latest TC research results will be presented

If you have the exact date for that conference you can post it and I will include it at the list.

Also I heard that a conference about the retiring names will be held in late march.Anyone who may know the exact date and where they will do it please post it.
