I worked on this during the code sprint.  I stole some text from the 
Apache Foundation's contact page.  http://www.osgeo.org/contact  Todo: 
create a new contact page and disable the "feedback form" (the current 
page) in Drupal.

This makes a lot of sense.  I setup Google infrastructure for another 
foundation years ago ("Google Apps for Business"), which means actual 
email accounts for their domain; they are still using that today.  At 
the time it was free for 10 users, but even now if it is a few dollars a 
month it is a no-brainer for having actual @osgeo.org mail accounts.

Nice to see that we/Board is open to tools that help us get-things-done 
easily.




And thanks to Vasile for getting the Board elections voting going so 
fast after Seoul.
