I'm no good at tooting my own horn, so I'll just paste the News article here:

You can all stop biting your fingernails now. The votes have been cast and counted. (Over 1000 BookCrossers participated in our first ever online convention-location-voting. Wow!) We can now tell you who won the bid for the 2010 Anniversary Convention! (Drum roll...)

But first, who were the candidates again? There were three: Amsterdam, Boston and Washington, DC. Each of them had a great spokesperson. Presentations were done in London at the 2008 Convention by Moem, Tobysrus and Skyring (the in loco parentis representative for the "BC in DC" group.) It was really hard to decide which of these wonderful cities to vote for, especially after seeing the fabulous online presentations or hearing reports back from folks attending the Convention in London.

But the outcome was pretty clear: mark your calendars for April 2010 in Amsterdam! Congratulations to the Dutch organizing team: boekenxnl, chris147, fotomiep, Joanazinha, Luielezer, Moem, Phoenix-Flight, Rubberchicken. Keep your eyes on the Convention Info page for updates. They've already got a nice website going with plans and loads of information.
