This needs to happen soon! Like in the next few weeks.
We will follow a similar process to last year, more information soon.
@Aklapper, @srishakatux or @Qgil: Any chance any of you could help jump-start this by creating Wikimedia Hackathon 2018 and Wikimedia Hackathon 2018 - Organization projects where we can start planning and get potential hosts to post their plans?

| Resolved | • Rfarrand | T157632 Decide on a location for the Wikimedia Hackathon 2018 |
This task is now high priority.
I have added a draft process here:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Hackathons/2018_Decision_Process
Will be working on next steps shortly.
I opened the call for hosts by emailing three large wikimedia mailing lists and asking others to forward the message further.
I am closing this task because it is done.
