[OSGeo-Conf] *early* Preparation of RFP 2021

[Eli Adam]

Hi all,

I made a small edit to add specifically include "Stage 1 polling
Period: 2019 October 05. to 2019 October 10."  I called it a polling
period instead of voting period since we get to vote for all the LOI
that we want.  It could be called voting too which would probably be
more consistent with our overall language.

The November 28th US Thanksgiving Holiday falls in "Stage 2 question
period: 2019 November 23. to 2019 December 06. " so there may be some
participation lull for the US participants.  It is a "other regions"
year and there is still adequate time so I think it is okay as is.
Just a comment.

Best regards, Eli
