[OSGeo-Conf] Reschedule teleconferece for Sydney's FOSS4G bid

[Cameron Shorter]

Could we please reschedule teleconference. I can't make it - I have a 
doctor's appointment I need to take my son to. I appologise for the 
inconvenience.

I suggest, same time and place, but the following day:

Wednesday 9am Sydney time.
Tuesday 5pm EST.
