    <p>Dear Jeff,</p>
    <p>Please either re-direct to the actual FOSS4G 2020 event, or at
      least take down or clarify the content.<br>
      <br>
      It is very confusing because the website does not even clearly
      state that this was a proposal / bid.</p>
    <p>This is quite embarrassing for everyone from the LOC listed on
      the TEAM HFX link, especially Karine, myself and Thierry who are
      featured prominently there with pictures and all.</p>
    <p>Thank you.</p>
    <p>All the best,<br>
