If I may suggest, I would say one requirement should be that it be held on a different continent each year.
We'd run out of continents quickly, and I'm not just talking about the seventh year. :)
It would be desirable to diversify to other continents if possible, there seems to be no good reason to restrict it so early in the game. There was talk towards the end of WM'05 that perhaps Asia (China/Singapore/Japan) or North America (Canada) would be great candidates. But Dutch and French folks have much more critical mass of organization/staffing, that we should not rule them out entirely.
Much of the problem is that the German folks did such an amazing job,that it's such a hard act to follow with anything but the largest Wikipedia communities.
