[OSGeo-Conf] Start 2019 RFP / Call for vote on "publishing LoIvotes"

[Till Adams]

I  think publishing the vote results and the min. number of votes to
pass the first threshold are two pair of shoes.

I like the idea of a min. of 3 votes, but I prefer not to publish the
results.

Should we vote on the min. number of votes as well?
