[OSGeo-Conf] 2009 RFP draft review

[Julien-Samuel Lacroix]

Sorry to reply to myself, but I discussed quickly with Jeff about that 
and wanted to bring our conclusions. He made me understood that putting 
the voting process in the draft document is enough since everybody 
interested can read it there. Great!

Since we had a concensus simply adding a note in the draft document 
saying what level of results will be disclosed is enough.

Thanks Jeff

Julien
