talking about journalists... it might be good to consider telling the local teams (or at least the winning team) some time in advance before making the decision public, to enable them to prepare a proper (joint) press release from the chapter and/or the wmf. I know this is not very ideal towards the community, but this might be an advantage to catch attention, and to reach out that way.

Yes. I suggest to tell all the teams representatives the final decission before it will be officially announced. Maybe it is even more important for those two who won't be happy to have Wikimania in 2010, as there might be plenty of unnecesary frustration after being informed about it via press.
