[Board] Re: OSGeo Board Election 2011

[Daniel Morissette]

OSGeo Members,

I made a copy/paste error in this announcement and the last paragraph 
(copied from last year's announcement) referring to August 12, 2010 as 
the nomination close is incorrect.

The nomination period indeed ends on August 7, 2011 at 23:59 ...

Sorry about this

Daniel
