If you replace frankfurt with Amsterdam, the hague or Utrecht, I'm fine with it :)
I could manage all four. Amsterdam or Frankfurt would also be not too bad for people on the east coast of the U.S. Flights aren't too bad.
Ideal for me would be Brussels. I live about 15-20km away. Not to mention that I believe in such a case the EU should be involved in helping fund something like that.
However, Brussels is an expensive city, and I only know one other Belgian Wikimedian at all well. I'm sure they exist, but with the country being essentially split into two language groups there is little cohesion or drive to set up WMF Belgium.
Personally I'd love to attend at least one Wikimania and give a talk on Wikinews as an effort to educate and recruit contributors. Alexandria? Send me a nice knitted ski-mask and I'll rob the bank for funds.
