[QGIS-Developer] FOSS4G CFP proposals around QGIS

Hello

I quickly cross checked with the LOC.

First (inofficial) response is Marco's talk should have it covered
already. The idea is to have an overview on what happened with the
project, what are future plans etc.

But I'm sure that an additional presentation about the organisational
side of things which has moved quite a bit too in the last years will be
interesting as well. I'd propose to choose a name that highlights this
though so as not to have people expect a feature frenzy in there ;)
