Hi Ari,

The concept is that foss4g.fi would be used for each FOSS4G event each 
year; instead of having foss4gfinland2017.com  and foss4gfinland2018.com 
and foss4gfinland2019.com etc.   It becomes easier for users to find 
your event, and also cheaper to manage it.  (you could have 
foss4g.fi/2016 foss4g.fi/2017 foss4g.fi/2018)

If you are unwilling to do that, please let me know and I will purchase 
it on my personal credit card, for the OSGeo-Finland community to use.

-thanks,
